GN 20 Leveling Feet in Hygienic Design

JW Winco, Inc. offers GN 20 leveling feet in hygienic design, with mounting holes.

These hygienic leveling feet with mounting holes are certified according to European Hygienic Engineering and Design Group guidelines, making them ideal for use in hygienic applications, as the bottom seal protects the area beneath the foot plate from dirt.

For this, the foot must be screwed on using the mounting holes and compressed accordingly. The sealing ring above the adjustment sleeve enables fastening without dead space. Due to the wiper or the ball seal, the moving components are sealed against the environment, while the finish prevents adherence of dirt and facilitates cleaning.

    wiper

    Metal-removing edge on the face of a cutter that travels in a plane perpendicular to the axis. It is the edge that sweeps the machined surface. The flat should be as wide as the feed per revolution of the cutter. This allows any given insert to wipe the entire workpiece surface and impart a fine surface finish at a high feed rate.
