DIN Single Cam vs 10/13/14-Tooth Cogwheels for Multi-Point Shootbolts
Engineering Overview: Technical comparison between standard single-tooth DIN cams and 10/13/14-tooth cogwheels for gear-driven multi-point entrance door locks.
Technical & Engineering Specifications
| Application | Standard Mortise Locks vs Multi-Point Shootbolt Gearboxes |
|---|---|
| Drive Types | DIN 30° Single Cam vs 10T / 13T / 14T Cogwheels |
| Gear Module | Module 1.5 / 2.0 Involute Profile |
| Cam Diameter | 15.0 mm Sweep Circle |
Drive Cam Interfaces
Euro cylinders drive mortise lock bolts through either single-tooth cams or gear cogwheels.
Kinematic Comparison
- DIN 30° Standard Cam: Single radius driving lug that rotates 360° to strike the mortise lock bolt lever. Standard across 90% of European single/multi-point locks.
- Multi-Tooth Cogwheels (10T, 13T, 14T): Sintered steel involute gear that meshes continuously with a gear rack inside heavy-duty multi-point security locks, reducing key turning effort by 40%.
