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.
