The widespread use of powerful industrial robots and automated high capacity machinery increases the risk for work place injuries: Safe Lock has been engineered to prevent entry to restricted areas

An interlocking system that makes it better to be 'safe than sorry' meets with all European safety standards The more and more widespread use of powerful industrial robots and other automated high capacity machinery increases the risk for work place injuries.

To virtually eliminate such dangers the Safe Lock has been engineered to prevent entry to restricted areas.

The Safe Lock was developed and designed in order to minimise these hazards.

It complies fully with the European Machine Directive 98/37 as well as with the EN 1088 and the EN 954-1, the latter defining five specific categories of safety levels, B, plus I to IV.

It offers flexible interlocking systems including four options covering the entire spectrum of door locking and safety requirements.

Obviously manufacturers want to avoid any accident occurring because the consequences are that it not only causes human suffering; it also results in very expensive production standstills.

In addition to this there will be reporting and investigations for even a minor incident, which can be time consuming, while for a major event will be devastating.

The Safe Lock has unique operational qualities and is a patented solution aimed at making a safe industrial environment!.
