Mounting Types and Subgroups of the Mounting Technology

There are many different types of mounting, from screws and angles to a complete system. The appropriate mounting depends on the respective application, the space conditions, the installation situation and the influencing factors (water, sun, cleaning agents or welding spatter).

wenglor’s mounting systems offer reliable and secure installation. Precise positioning of the sensors and reflectors is guaranteed by 360° vertical and horizontal alignment.

Round Bar System

The round bar system can be individually assembled according to requirements. It consists of mounting bars/profiles, mounting clamps/bar clamps and consoles as well as other mounting elements.

Miniature Mounting System

The mounting technology for miniature designs is specially tailored to the requirements of the small 1K series as well as other wenglor products and enables installation in systems with limited space.

Mounting System for Aluminum Profiles

The mounting system for aluminum profiles includes various mounting elements that can be screwed directly onto aluminum profiles and fix wenglor products.

Hygienic Mounting System

Strict hygiene regulations such as daily cleaning and disinfection of machines and entire equipment must be observed in the food industry. The hygienic mounting system is used especially in these ambient conditions.
