The main purpose of machine feet is to stabilize machines and optimize their positioning. They level out uneven surfaces, damp vibrations, and distribute the load evenly, which ensures secure footing for the machine and reduces noise and vibrations. This improves working conditions and also provides long-term protection for the floor and the machine, thus extending the service life.
Safe, stable, and precise: norelem is expanding its product range to include a new series of robust machine feet with a hollow bolt, developed for large machines and systems, especially for use in robotics and automation. The new series comprises four product families:
- Leveling feet with a hollow bolt
- Steel hollow bolts for leveling feet with a length of 85, 95, and 170mm (galvanized or black phosphatized)
- Steel disks for leveling feet with a diameter of 100, 120, and 150mm (painted yellow or black phosphatized)
- Hex nuts similar to DIN 934
The hollow bolt enables secure anchoring in the floor – ideal for dynamic loads. The fine threads enable extremely precise leveling, also on uneven surfaces or inclinations up to 3°. Their load-carrying capacity of up to 60kN (M24x2) or 90kN (M36x2) makes the machine feet especially suitable for heavy systems.
Customers can purchase the machine feet as a complete unit or as single parts: disk, hollow hex bolt, and matching nut. Since the disk and bolt are not permanently connected, this offers additional mounting flexibility.
