Common Types of Wedge Mounts
1. Bolt-onWedgeMounts
Bolt-on wedge mounts are engineered for heavy-duty applications demanding maximum stability and load-bearing capacity with precise levelling. These wedge mounts offer secure attachment to equipment and with its precision levelling mechanism, aligns your machinery like tool room machines, plastic injection moulding machines, pressure die casting machines,shapersetc.
2. FreeStandingWedgeMounts
Free standing wedge mounts are preferred for their versatility and ease of installation. An adjustable wedge mount that is vibration-proof and has a precise levelling mechanism, a big adjustmentstroke,andafunctionthatpreventsvibrationsfrom occurring.
