ODU-MAC® RAPID with spindle locking and a modular design for test & measurement technology and industrial applications.

The ODU-MAC® RAPID with spindle locking and a modular design has successfully proven itself on the market. It’s practical, space-saving locking mechanism is based on a simple rotary movement and has proven especially popular in measuring and testing technology and industrial applications.

In addition to the large version, this housing is now also available as a smaller version in size 2, and in black or white. This allows us to respond even more precisely to customer requirements. For example, the white connector perfectly complements the design of medical devices.

Thanks to the 2-shell housing, the ODU-MAC® RAPID is quick and easy to assemble and install. Cable routing is further simplified by the fact that the housing remains open during cable assembly. Furthermore, subsequent adjustments can be easily carried out, resulting in time savings of up to 50%.

Strain relief can also be created for the individual strands by bundling them on the optional grid plates, thus ensuring increased durability and stability. Depending on the requirements, the cable outlet can be adapted on all variants – it can simply be cut with a knife, i.e. no special tools are required.

This housing extension lets the user create a flexible overall system with a high degree of freedom and customisation, while also saving time.
