LOCKWASHER 10MM PLANETARY BOLT

A planetary mixer is a commercial piece of equipment designed to prepare food, dough and other products, replacing manual labor through a mechanical system that allows the continuous production of large quantities of food. The name “planetary mixer” describes the system used in the equipment that mixes the dough in the direction of the planets rotation in the solar system. The planetary mixer is comprised of a bowl for ingredients placement, mixing elements (whisk, hook, flat beater, scraper or other system), motors that start the bowl and whisk movements, and interconnection of the machinery that allows to the operator the control of the mixing process and other labor process (programming times and speeds; mixing elements).

A washer is a thin plate (typically disk-shaped, but sometimes square) with a hole (typically in the middle) that is normally used to distribute the load of a threaded fastener, such as a bolt or nut. Other uses are as a spacer, spring (Belleville washer, wave washer), wear pad, preload indicating device, locking device, and to reduce vibration (rubber washer). Spring washers, which have axial flexibility are used to prevent fastening or loosening due to vibrations. Locking (lock) washers prevent fastening or loosening by preventing unscrewing rotation of the fastening device.
