Key facts:Interlocked · 60°/120°/180° vertical opening · Adjustable hexagonal arms · High-visibility semi-hexagonal shield · Hinge-integrated microswitch · OSHA/ANSI/ISO-EN/CE
Exclusive safety guard for small milling machines and similar equipment. The semi-hexagonal shield opens vertically to 60° / 120° / 180° to clear the table, while the adjustable hexagonal arm system provides multiple anchoring configurations. A safety microswitch integrated in the rotation hinge authorizes machine start only when the shield is correctly closed. Designed to reduce the risk of contact with rotating parts and to contain chips and cutting fluid. Compliant with OSHA/ANSI/ISO-EN/CE.
Protects the operator from rotating parts of the vertical spindle and helps contain the projection of shavings, chips and lubricant-coolant. The spring-assisted vertical opening offers system 60°–120°–180° positions for quick setups and access. Hexagonal support arms are widely adjustable and interchangeable to fit various fixing configurations. The shield-support hinge integrates a safety microswitch for electrical interlocking.
The interlocked system prevents machine start when the guard is open or not correctly positioned, helping reduce accident risk and supporting OSHA/ANSI/ISO-EN/CE compliance.

No. The 60° / 120° / 180° positions provide clear access depending on the operation.
Yes. The hinge-integrated microswitch authorizes start-up only when the guard is correctly closed.
Before use, inspect the shield (no cracks/splits) and test the microswitch. Clean the shield and guard surfaces regularly (machine stopped, trained personnel) to maintain clear visibility and interlock integrity.
