The developed locking unit has a diameter of 15 mm and is made from a combination of aluminium, plastic, and brass. This material selection provides a good balance between strength, low weight, and wear resistance.

The design intentionally features a round geometry. This shape enables simple and cost-effective manufacturing, particularly through efficient machining processes such as turning. At the same time, the simple geometry reduces material usage and machining time.

A special feature of the locking unit is its flexible actuation. It can be operated manually by hand as well as pneumatically. This allows the unit to be used in various applications, for example in automated systems or in situations where both manual and automated operation are required.

The main field of application for the locking unit is wire harness testing technology, where reliable and secure locking of connectors during the testing process is essential. In addition, it can also be used in many other applications where safe and automated locking of components is required.

Overall, the locking unit is characterized by its compact design, cost-efficient manufacturing and wide range of applications.
