En Simple Sliding Position Indexing Mechanism is a streamlined solution for applications requiring precise, incremental linear movement. Unlike complex motorized stages, this manual mechanism uses a high-visibility indexing rail combined with a spring-loaded plunger or detent system. It allows operators to quickly slide a carriage to a predetermined location and “click” it into place with perfect repeatability. This is an essential component for adjustable laboratory equipment, multi-size packaging jigs, and customizable assembly workstations where components must be moved frequently between fixed stations.

Al descargar este dibujo, you receive a robust design that focuses on smooth travel and positive engagement. The CAD data includes specific tolerances for the sliding fit to prevent binding, as well as the geometry for the indexing notches to ensure a secure lock that won’t slip under load. The design is modular, meaning the rail length and the number of indexing stops can be easily modified to suit your specific stroke requirements. Whether you are building a prototype or a shop floor tool, these blueprints provide the structural layout for a low-maintenance, reliable sliding system that eliminates the need for manual measuring during operation.

Características principales:

  • Positive Locking Engagement: Features a hardened steel plunger that snaps into precision-machined notches for a “zero-slip” hold.
  • Low-Friction Sliding Interface: Designed with specified clearances for smooth movement along the guide rail without excessive play.
  • Ergonomic Release Handle: Includes a knurled or T-handle plunger design for easy one-handed operation and adjustment.
  • Scalable Indexing Intervals: The rail drawing allows for custom spacing of holes or notches to match your specific process steps.
  • Durable Open Architecture: Easy to clean and inspect, making it suitable for industrial environments where dust or debris may be present.
