EMKA (UK) Ltd announces advancements in its Agent E swinghandle and accompanying accessories, designed to enhance cabinet security through wireless communication.

As specialist manufacturers of enclosure hardware, EMKA are pleased to offer their programme of robust Torque Friction Hinges, which can serve the function of a door stay and beneficially save the cost and installation of a separate stay component, even allowing up to 180 degrees of door opening.

KUKA relies on EMKA’s precision fit closures and hinges. So, when it was developing new modular control cabinets for its robot controller and central power supply, the team at EMKA was an obvious choice.

Flexible design and reliable application are essential features of hardware components for large enclosure OEMs such as Rittal. In order to set up control and switchgear systems as quickly as possible and to operate them safely, system engineers need a wide range of electro-technical components that must meet a variety of requirements in order to interact.

SICHERT is a company that produces outdoor and multifunctional enclosures as part of a secure system for complex infrastructures.

EMKA have continued their work in the cabinet security industry with their biometric “at the door” system for data centre racking and other sensitive data applications across the financial and public service environments, as well as for vulnerable industrial situations.

EMKA’s virtual showroom provides an online tour of EMKA products and applications from an exhibition perspective.

EMKA engineers have stayed at the forefront of hardware developments by maintaining a close relationship with their customers.

The arduous nature of railway carriage and lineside applications ensures a high degree of overlap with other industries such as agriculture, commercial vehicles and marine, which call for similar product characteristics.

The EMKA range of Air Conditioning HVAC specialist panel hardware comprises a full program of heavy-duty vibration resistant latches, lift and turn latches, pull handles, pull with quarter turn and 180° hinges and P type gasket profiles which may be provided in continuous sealed rings.

For specialist panel builders and installers, the latest must-have 2021 main catalogue from EMKA covers their broad programme of ingenious locking technology hardware for industrial cabinets and enclosures.

The EMKA 2020 catalogue and online offering expresses renewed emphasis on hardware for niche industries where locks and latches are required to meet particular criteria appropriate to sectors such as railways, HVAC, hygiene areas and caravans/mobile homes and trailers.

Externally invisible locking is offered by the new EMKA ePush-Lock, meeting the need for a comfortable non-handle locking system. This flat design style of internal locking handle is the trend for mobile homes and many other applications where it is advantageous to disguise opening panels.

It has been announced that the new EMKA 1007 program concealed gear hinge, often referred to in the industry as ‘SOSS’ type is a hidden 180° opening unit mounted within the width thickness of the doors with a minimum dimension of 33mm. Smooth sliding action and improved appearance are additionally offered by this rugged hinge which as well as being hidden is also resistant to vandalism.

The experienced engineers at EMKA are well aware of the varying needs of industrial markets worldwide, the Railway industry of course is one in particular where they have both a standard product and significant custom design focus. Of course, custom design is applicable to large and small production quantities, but is always targeted at achieving the best lock, latch, sealing solution for rail related applications.

As a long-time partner of the train and transport industry, EMKA is constantly working on new and innovative locking developments like their IP65 Stainless Steel Safety Latch Lock with red/green visual position indicator. This flush mounted unit is tamper and vibration proof for rear mounting on doors of 5mm thickness where fully flush appearance is required, otherwise a slight inset or upstand is presented.

EMKA’s new catalogue of Ingenious Locking Technology for the Railroad Industry includes many new approaches to the specific needs of rail installers. The Program 1057 flush mounting quarter-turn latch is one such item. Designed for rear fitting to door panels of 3.5-21mm thickness and to present a very neat flush and vandal-resistant face, this lock is partnered with its sister Program 1000 IP65 stainless steel compression latch for mountin...

Vibration and tampering are both addressed with the new Program 1000 stainless steel compression latch from EMKA for use in railway applications. This IP65 latch offers a high degree of vandal-resistance by virtue of its tube key mechanism requiring a special internally profiled key to open/close and to operate the 6mm gasket compression featured by turning the key 90° - once to close the latch and then again to compress the gasket.

The new eCam from EMKA provides a secure electromechanical locking system to prevent opening of a manually operated latch/lock even when forced from the outside. The EMKA eCam is designed especially for trailers, mobile homes and RVs where it enables multiple locking/unlocking from a remote central point.

Stainless steel is of course known for its robust strength under arduous corrosive conditions and that is exactly why EMKA chose it for their program of high performance specialist cabinet/enclosure hinges.
