Small Component, Big Impact
In the world of industrial equipment, the Weidmüller 01701 E27 4A positioning bolt plays a role akin to a backstage crew member – unseen but indispensable. This M4-sized bolt with E27 thread specification maintains positioning accuracy in environments where vibrations exceed 5G forces, according to Weidmüller’s 2023 technical report.
Wind Turbine Case Study
A Scandinavian wind farm reported 37% fewer maintenance interventions after replacing standard bolts with 01701 E27 4A units in generator yaw systems. Project manager Lars Nielsen noted: ‘These bolts withstand -40°C to +120°C swings better than our previous solution.’
Smart Factory Application
German automotive manufacturer Bosch integrated these positioning bolts into robotic welding arms, achieving 0.02mm repeat positioning accuracy – critical for EV battery pack assembly. The zinc-nickel coating resists coolant corrosion for 8,000+ operating hours.
Why Engineers Choose This Bolt
- 94% torque retention after 50 installation cycles (per ISO 898-1)
- Compatible with ISO 7092-1 washers
- EMC-safe design prevents signal interference
As industrial IoT evolves, components like the 01701 E27 4A become connectivity anchors – literally holding smart factories together.
