EMKA provides closure components for control cabinets and enclosures in mechanical engineering to meet the most diverse requirements. Quick assembly and simple installation, convenient operation and, above all, a secure locking system are demanded. Because on hazardous machines, personal protection plays a significant role, meaning that a professional locking system is required to secure the highly sensitive electronics in control cabinets on the one hand, but also to safeguard individual persons in areas of a machine where safety is endangered.
The company's locking solutions for machine building and general mechanical engineering meet safety criteria, with locking and operating convenience and durability even under demanding conditions. This comprehensive range includes quarter-turn latch/locks, safety/compression versions and quick fit clip-in designs – an eCam electromechanical locking mechanism, plus torque hinges, bow type handles, aluminium windows and gaskets/edge protective strips.
Where appropriate, these products comply with the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC for protection against dust and water with the desired IP protection classes and/or UL certification. They also offer grounding protection, vibration resistance and lock position indicators. Many also satisfy fire protection, compression, and operation requirements in doors with large returns or through large panel thicknesses. Over 15,000 standard products have American UL certification for the quarter turns alone.
