Handwheel GN 322.4-200-K18-D-ZI Z009146

Handwheels – Precision and Functionality in One

The GN 322.4-200-K18-D handwheel, made of aluminum, is a reliable control element widely used in machines and equipment. Designed for precise setting and adjustment, this wheel combines a solid construction with user comfort. Its versatility makes it ideal for both professional installers and end-users.

Construction and Operating Principle

The GN 322.4 handwheel is characterized by a solid aluminum body and a precisely machined hub. Variants with different types of handles are available – without a handle (type A) or with a rotating steel handle (type D), allowing them to be adapted to specific needs. This model offers two coupling mechanisms: by pulling (ZI) or pushing (DR). The operating principle is based on axially pulling or pushing the wheel, which allows transferring the drive to the shaft. When the grip is released, the clutch automatically disengages due to the spring force – this solution ensures safety and comfort of work.

Applications and Benefits

Handwheels from the GN 322.4 series are used in many industries, including:

• Mechanical Engineering: precise positioning of machine elements.
• Automation: regulation of operating parameters of automatic devices.
• Food Industry: control of production processes requiring manual adjustment.
• Laboratory Equipment: accurate setting of experiment parameters.

Choosing the GN 322.4 handwheel guarantees:

• Durability: made of high-quality aluminum ensures long-term operation even in harsh industrial conditions.
• Precision: precise machining of the hub and high manufacturing accuracy guarantee smooth and accurate adjustment.
• Safety: the automatic clutch disengagement mechanism minimizes the risk of uncontrolled shaft movement after releasing the wheel grip.
• Ergonomics: the availability of different types of handles allows you to adapt the wheel to individual user preferences and application specifics – especially the model with a rotating handle (type D) facilitates quick adjustment movements.
• Versatility: the possibility of choosing between ZI or DR variants allows adaptation to a specific mounting and device operation method.

Additional accessories, such as GN 184 locking washers, allow securing the axial position of the wheel, increasing its stability and reliability during operation.
