Electronics is not always the keyword in machine safety. Many mechanical engineers use a mere mechanical key transfer system, which offers enhanced flexibility and simplified operation due to the absence of wiring. If the operator wants to open a safety guard, he withdraws the corresponding key from the central unit. This can only be done, when the machine is idle: in this situation, a safe standst...

The Maxi Fan has been developed to extend the catching width of the standard fan, and to increase the level of containment provided. This offers particular benefits in concrete construction, where the tables or soffit formwork will cantilever beyond the building line, reducing the effective catching width of the standard SNF.
