CMT.AE-V0 Series, Latches, Locks

Latches and Locks are essential hardware components used to secure a wide range of equipment, ranging from cabinets and machine covers to toolboxes and enclosures. These locking mechanisms come in various types, each designed to provide a specific level of security and functionality. The most common types of latches and locks include cam latches, cam latch/padlockable, cam locks, compression latches, compression locks, L-handle cam latches, L-handle cam locks, lift and turn latches, rotating latches, slam cam latches, sliding locks, swell latches, swing handles, T-handle cam latches, T-handle cam locks, T-handle compression latches, and T-handle compression locks. Cam latches use a rotating cam to secure the equipment cover or door in place. Cam latch/padlockable variants feature an additional padlock capability for added security. Cam locks employ a key-operated mechanism to secure the equipment. Compression latches utilize a turning knob to compress the gasket against the frame, creating a tight and secure seal. Compression locks provide additional security with a locking feature. L-handle cam latches and locks feature an L-shaped handle that rotates around a pivot point, activating the cam mechanism to secure the equipment. Lift and turn latches require a lifting motion to engage the locking mechanism, while rotating latches use a simple twist motion. Slam cam latches automatically engage when the equipment cover is closed. Swell latches utilize a compression mechanism to create a tight seal, and swing handles feature a hinged design that allows the handle to swing away from the equipment when not in use. Finally, T-handle cam latches and locks employ a T-shaped handle that rotates around a pivot point to engage the cam mechanism or compression latch. In summary, latches and locks are hardware components used to secure a wide range of equipment. The various types of latches and locks offer different levels of security and functionality to meet the specific needs of equipment and enclosure designs. By providing reliable and robust locking mechanisms, latches and locks help ensure the safety and security of equipment and sensitive contents within.
