Smart lock set

Rino Industries Ltd, as Gerwah GmbH’s UK distributor, is launching of a new product line called Smart Lock Set.

The Smart Lock set consists of an indestructible shrink disc, a cylindrical adapter and support bushing, a hollow shaft and a cover.

The adapter bushing enables the use of universally available bore diameters and hollow shaft dimensions.

The number of spare parts is therefore reduced, resulting in visible cost savings, the company states. Smart Lock makes it possible to easily install and remove hollow shaft drives, even after extended periods of service time.

Now, a gearbox hollow shaft can cover a wider range of solid shaft diameters through the use of adapter bushings.

Rino Industries Ltd is based in Chesterfield, UK.
