This applies, for example, to elements such as handwheels (2, 3, 4 spoke and solid), crank handles, clamping knobs with bored insert, as well as 3 arm lobe knobs and tri-lobe knobs, which ensures quick and correct fitment to the operating shaft, says the company.
The service uses pre-set machining jigs, fixtures and tooling, saving internal time and programme disruption costs, as well as ensuring that any mistakes are at no cost to the customer. “This simplifies the production process for standard secondary operations such as drill and tap or bore and ream – eg, to H7 tolerance,” said Elesa. “The service is applicable to plastic moulded items with insert, or solid – eg, aluminium or stainless steel – which require a keyway, cross-drill and pin or specialist machining, such as undercuts or partial threads.”
There is no minimum quantity on standard components and the offer can also apply to outright customised solutions from the Elesa factory in larger quantities.
