Sugatsune introduces a series of advanced components designed to enhance safety, functionality, and operational efficiency across diverse industrial environments. Central to these innovations is Motion Design Technology (MDT), Sugatsune’s proprietary movement engineering platform that enables customized mechanical motion for improved control, ease of use, and safety. From free stop hinges and assistive lift mechanisms to soft close dampers and multi-linear motion, MDT empowers engineers to tailor movement exactly to application needs, resulting in smoother workflows and more reliable equipment performance, particularly for precise and safe lid control.
Among the key highlights is the CJH handle, purpose-built for control boxes and industrial panels. This handle exemplifies both toughness and beauty, combining industrial-grade strength with a clean, modern design. It features a long, color-coded cap available in grey, yellow, black, orange, red, and blue for intuitive operation and clear demarcation of danger zones or designated work areas. The CJH handle supports both front and back mounting with screws, offering flexible installation and ensuring reliable performance in demanding environments.
To ensure equipment stability on uneven surfaces, Sugatsune offers the ADPS and ADP stainless steel levelling glides. These glides feature a hexagonal nut at the base for quick and easy adjustment and are available in robust 304 and 316 stainless steel, offering excellent corrosion resistance and long-term durability. Their high load capacity and industrial-grade design make them ideal for heavy-duty applications in challenging environments.
For machinery and industrial enclosures requiring secure and precise lid positioning, the HG S Swivel Torque Hinge delivers outstanding performance. Utilizing MDT enables smooth, controlled motion with free stop positioning at any angle. Its central hole allows for seamless cable management, and the hinge has successfully passed a 20,000-cycle open/close test. This hinge is especially suited for large control panels, HMI units, and heavy machinery, ensuring safe, reliable access during routine operations.
The HG PA202 Lift Assist Hinge outside back mount is engineered to simplify the lifting of heavy, top-opening lids. It incorporates spring tension for lift assist, a built-in damper for soft-close functionality, and an adjustable torque mechanism for customizable performance. With concealed mounting and hygienic design, it’s ideal for food machinery applications where cleanliness and user safety are critical. It performs best when the lid’s center of gravity is above the rotation axis, achieving peak torque at around 20 degrees.
Sugatsune offers a comprehensive range of torque hinge solutions for advanced lid and panel control, all built on its Motion Design Tech (MDT) philosophy for smooth, precise, and reliable motion. From swivel hinges with cable routing for clean integration to spring-assist and damper hinges for effortless, safe lid movement, the portfolio addresses diverse industrial needs. Options like detachable, two-axis, concealed, and stainless-steel torque hinges provide flexibility, durability, and design-friendly solutions- empowering engineers with reliable, ergonomic, and maintenance-friendly motion systems.
Also featured is the MC MS45 Sealed Magnetic Catch, designed for secure, quiet closures. Its powerful neodymium magnet ensures a firm hold, while the silicone rubber housing reduces impact noise and wear. Available in light and dark grey, this component integrates well into both industrial and commercial equipment. It is compatible with flat counter plates such as MC JMP45, AS 68, or MC JM49, and works optimally with M4 Truss head screws.
