Standard Elements for the Reliable Operation of Your Machines and Devices

Standard Machine Elements – The Foundation of Reliable Construction

In industrial manufacturing, machine building, and equipment maintenance, it's often the smallest parts that matter most – the ones that stay in the background yet make the entire system rotate, open, close, hold, and adjust. Standard elements are indispensable in this category, used in assembling machines, devices, housings, furniture systems, laboratory equipment, and much more.

At M&M Intercom, we offer a wide range of standard elements tailored for industrial use. Made from high-quality materials like steel, stainless steel, aluminum, plastic, or rubber, they share common traits: easy installation, long service life, wear resistance, and aesthetic finish.

What Does Our Range of Standard Elements Include?

Our range includes over 20 element groups, categorized by function and application area. Here's an overview of the main subcategories:

Clamping Elements and Mechanical Joints

  • Lifting pins, dowels, and all types of screws for stable component connections
  • Retaining rings (circlips) for secure axial positioning of bearings, shafts, and axles
  • Snap-in elements for quick locking of movable parts without additional tools

Handles, Knobs, and Levers

Manual control components for industrial equipment, including:

  • Fixed, rotating, and foldable handles
  • Gripping handles for housings, cabinets, and boxes
  • Control handles for precise movement control
  • Handwheels and crank handles for accurate mechanical positioning
  • Adjustment knobs, sliders, and elements for easy adjustment of height, depth, or tension

Fastening and Damping Elements

  • Rubber dampers to absorb shock and vibration (also used as machine feet)
  • Leveling feet for alignment and stability on uneven surfaces

Locking and Closing Mechanisms

  • Quick clamps, tension latches, and power clamps for tool-free locking or tensioning
  • Latches and locks for mechanically closing doors, covers, and housings

Special Elements

  • Industrial hinges (metal or plastic) for doors, cabinets, and access covers
  • Magnets for mechanical retainers or positioning aids
  • Position indicators showing the set position of mechanical elements
  • Other standard machine parts like measuring equipment brackets, support feet, spacers, etc.
Why Are Standard Elements So Important?
  • Enable easy assembly without additional processing
  • Simplify machine and device design
  • Reduce maintenance and repair costs
  • Ensure workplace safety and system stability
  • Readily available and compliant with industry standards

All our solutions conform to DIN, ISO, and GN standards, making them compatible with standardized systems, modular units, and automation applications.

Industrial Use of Standard Elements

Standard elements are used across nearly all industries:

  • Mechanical engineering and automation: for mechanical assembly and component access
  • Furniture industry: for assembling metal parts, fittings, and finishing details
  • Medical and lab equipment: where precision and hygiene are critical
  • Metal industry and electrical cabinets: where speed and robustness matter
  • Logistics and transport equipment: for quick changeovers or enclosure locking
Materials You Can Trust

Our standard elements are available in various materials:

  • Stainless steel AISI 304 or 316 – for corrosion-resistant solutions
  • Carbon steel – for robust industrial conditions
  • Plastic composites (PA, PP, POM) – lightweight yet durable options
  • Aluminum – strong yet light construction elements
  • Elastomers and rubber – for damping, cushioning, and soft finishes
