Solid aluminium handwheels range from Elesa

A range of solid aluminium handwheels from Elesa suits spindles and controls on a wide range of industrial machines where a spoke free design is required, perhaps for reasons of safety or aesthetics.

The GN 923-A version features a plain face with internally scalloped rear rim to aid manual grip – its companion GN 923-R includes a fixed but revolving handle for greater speed of operation and retains the internal finger scallops for delicacy of adjustment. Fold-away handles for these handwheels come in the GN 923.3 where the handle is manually folded into a front recess – safety considerations are further addressed with the GN 923.7 featuring a spring loaded handle, which after use automatically springs back into its recess. Thus making this handwheel also suited to motor driven spindles as may often be found on industrial packaging or print machinery – also precision optical equipment, latches, milling machines etc. Readers can follow Elesa's activities on Twitter at: http://www.twitter.com/ElesaUK.
