Safety contact rails and bumpers as safety devices for
potentially dangerous machines
Bumpers
Bumpers are employed on automatic production lines to
minimise danger to both people and machines. The large foam
rubber cushions enable long practical braking and run-through
distances, thus enabling designers to optimise protection for
both personnel and machines.
The safety contact strips are mounted inside aluminium profiles
which are, in turn, protected by the large foam cushions that are
glued to the carrier profile and then sprayed with a thin film of
polyurethane which makes the bumper waterproof and helps to
minimise wear and tear.
The bumpers are delivered mounted to the carrier profile in
ordered lengths (0,2 m – 3 m).
Safety contact rails
Contact edges are used as protection against crushing injuries,
for example, moving machine parts, automatic doors.
Contact edges with cast-in contact strips
Our new contact edges consist of a rubber profile with a cast-in
contact strip. They are made up simply using connection plugs
that are glued to the ends together with a terminal cap. The
rubber profile is fitted on an aluminium profile.
Available in EPDM design. Supplied in lengths up to 25 m.
Contact edges with contact strips SKS18
The contact edge consists of a rubber profile with a safety contact
strip inside. The contact edge is fitted on an aluminium profile.
The special design of rubber profiles of EPDM or NBR rubber
protect the inner contact strip in the best way possible against
damage and also allow for a contact angle exceeding ±45˚.
Normally supplied in lengths up to 25 m.
