Covering 2 primary types of machine guarding with additional features and benefits based on the associated legacy machine controls and infrastructure.
Machine Guarding
Custom designed legacy machine safety guards using t-slot aluminum and steel guarding with wire mesh and polycarbonate panels in conjunction with safety interlock systems using best practices through operator collaboration focused on safety and production. This hazard mitigation or reduction of risk as found in OSHA 1910.212(a)(1) focused on types of guarding and using ANSI B11.19 specs with best practices is focused on preventing interaction between the machine operator and the machine production runs and limited during product setup functions.
Presence Sensing Safety
Industrial access control and restart prevention devices such as safety light curtains, safety laser scanners, safety mats, and 3d safety radar smart sensors for finger, hand, arm, and body safety with redundancy-checking monitoring devices through safety relays, safety controllers, or safety PLCs used to provide safety feedback between machine controls and e-safety devices. These systems help to meet ISO Safety standards such as EN 13849-1 giving you proper machinery protection following NEC and NFPA70 specifications.
Comparing Product Options
Tailored Custom Machine Guarding
Common machines found in industries served by PowerSafe proving challenging to be safeguarded due to level of operator interaction required. These designed to be custom-fit solutions designed with OSHA, ANSI, and best practices in mind balancing safety and operations for production and quality to help overcome these challenges.
Power Transmission Guards and Covers
Industrial covers, shields, and standard machine guards to mitigate against OSHA 1917.151 used to cover numerous types of power transmission systems such as rotating shafts from bearings, chain drives, gears and sprockets, belts, conveyor components such as idler rollers and drive belts, and couplers found on drive motors and pumps posing hazardous conditions such as pinch, cut, wrap, and shear points.
Review by Guard Type
Machine Guards and Shields
Get user-friendly machine guarding with integrated safety switches and anti-restart protection for your machine shops, maintenance departments, tool rooms, and mining repair shops. Ideal adjustability for experienced machinists with the flexibility for highly custom machining needs. This equipment can be found in general manufacturing, AG, and mining industries, which mining requires MSHA-24 Training.
Functional Safety Control Systems
Integrated Safety
Upgrade your legacy machine controls or add additional infrastructure required to improve safety on your equipment with the proper presence sensing devices. These consist of 2-hand controls, press safety, e-stop devices, fluid power safety equipment, hazloc, and some non-safety devices for supporting actions.
Modernize Your System
Control Reliability
For safety control circuit requirements (CAT3, PLd) to ensure your circuit safely delivers proper machine functions between machine controls and safety monitoring devices reducing risk of injury shown in ISO 26262 through circuit verification and validation by functional safety engineers, along with control upgrades. Electrical schematics, fluid power schematics, and panel layouts can be provided showing the components used and usage.
