Safety & security products
Protect staff and machinery with pressure-sensitive mats, mouldings and sensors
Safety and security products for personal and machine protection in industrial, commercial and public environments. The solutions are based on pressure activation, presence detection and sensor systems that prevent accidents, stop machines in time and create safe work zones. The products are used to monitor hazardous areas, machine movements and access - and are designed to work reliably even in demanding environments with high safety requirements.
Clamps & edgings
Pressure-sensitive safety edges to protect people from crushing and crushing injuries.
- Activation across the list
- Low to medium activation force
- Available in multiple profiles, colours & sensitivities
- Easy mounting with rail or tape
- Customised lengths and shapes
Safety mats & activation surfaces
Pressure-sensitive mats to monitor danger zones and stop machines if necessary.
- Activation on contact anywhere on the carpet
- Triggering, presence detection or combined function
- Standard or customised sizes
- Materials for different industrial environments (PVC, TPE, aluminium)
- Multiple zones possible for directional signals
Function and uses
The protection and security solutions can act as:
- Triggering protection - sends a signal when a person or object enters a risk zone
- Presence-detecting protection - remain active as long as someone is in the area
- Combined security features - both immediate activation and continuous monitoring
Common applications include:
- Machine protection and emergency stop
- Gates, doors and automatic gates
- Height-adjustable equipment
- Production lines and robot cells
- Public spaces and transport solutions
Reliable technology for safe operation
The systems are based on proven pressure-sensitive technology and sensors with no dead zones, which means that activation occurs regardless of where the load or contact occurs. For larger areas, multiple units can be linked together to create comprehensive protection without inactive areas.
The solutions can be customised:
- Shape and size
- Activation power and sensitivity
- Material choices for different environments
- Colour, labelling and function
Customised security solutions
All protection and safety products can be delivered as customised solutions, designed for specific applications and requirements. The focus is on high reliability, long service life and easy integration into existing control and safety systems.
