Materials Used in Making Machine Guards
Machine guards or machine safety defense, essential for risk control and operator safety, are common in manufacturing and production where have moving parts on machinery. There are some of common materials used for machine guards, steel, pvc, pmma, but polycarbonate as the preferred material for these safeguarding due to high impact resistance and optical clarity. Clear polycarbonate machine guards offer visibility into processes while ensuring protection from high impact, withstand continuous high impact, shatter proof.
Normally Types Polycarbonate Used in Machine guards
Excelite GP Polycarbonate Sheets
Excelite offers GP polycarbonate sheet for normal application for machine guards. The polycarbonate general purpose sheet provides high optical clarity, high impact resistance, making it an excellent choice for machine guards where protection shield against impact and blast is essential. When exposed to sunlight or UV radiation, we add UV coating to enhance its durability and long life.
Excelite Polycarbonate AR(abrasion resistant)Sheet
The surface of Excelite AR sheet is engineered to scratch resistant, which offers protection of scratching, chemical resistant, such as oils, cleaning fluids, paints and adhesives. It makes a practical choice for applications where protection against scratches and exposure to chemicals is essential. This durability and resistance to wear and tear contribute to easier maintenance and long-term reliability of the sheet in diverse settings.
Excelite Polycarbonate Laser sheet
The polycarbonate laser sheet is designed to offer advanced protection against laser hazards, serving as a dependable barrier to reduce the dangers linked to laser exposure. At Excelite, we prioritize safety measures for individuals working in laser environments by providing the best solutions for safeguarding against laser operations.
Excelite Polycarbonate FR(flame resistant) Sheet UL94 V0
When utilizing polycarbonate sheets for vehicle enclosures, ensuring flame resistance is a critical requirement to enhance safety and compliance standards. Excelite Flame-resistant polycarbonate sheets are engineered to withstand exposure to high temperatures and flames, reducing the risk of ignition and flame spread in the event of a fire.
Excelite Polycarbonate Tinted Sheet
We also meet some special colors requirement in polycarbonate machine guard defenses.
Why Polycarbonate Machine Guards?
Polycarbonate is a popular choice for machine guards due to its unique combination of properties that make it well-suited for various applications.
- Precise Shaping Machinability: Polycarbonate is known for its close tolerance machinability, allowing for precise shaping and customization of machine guards to fit specific machine safeguard requirements.
- Optical transparency: Optical transparency glass is crucial in machine guard applications where monitoring and observation of equipment. It is an essential for operational efficiency and safety.
- High Impact Resistant: Polycarbonate is a highly durable material with exceptional impact resistant. Machine guards made from polycarbonate can withstand harsh industrial environments and provide reliable protection against accidental impacts or collisions, ensuring the equipment safeguard.
- High Thermal Resistant: Polycarbonate exhibits high thermal resistance, making it suitable for applications where high temperatures are a concern. It maintains this impact resistance over a wide temperature range (-40°C to 120°C).
- Flame Resistant: Polycarbonate machine guards help prevent the spread of flames and contribute to overall fire protection measures in industrial settings. We also can do UL94 V0 fire retardant sheet.
- Chemical Resistance: Polycarbonate is also resistant to a wide range of chemicals, including oils, cleaning fluids, and solvents.
How We Do for Machine Guards?
At Excelite, you have the option to select specialized polycarbonate panels for your machine guards or enclosures, including antistatic sheets for cleanrooms, laser protective sheets for laser cutter enclosures, and anti-scratch polycarbonate sheets for automation systems or food industry. We supply plastic sheets separately or provide complete polycarbonate and aluminum frame solutions.
- Mounting Steel Frame: Excelite provides steel aluminum profiles combined with durable polycarbonate panels to create machine guards, machine enclosures or clear shielding room tailored to your workplace needs. Excelite polycarbonate machine guard defense panels are available in different standard widths. Normally we can choose 4.5mm thickness polycarbonate sheet which is shatter proof. The polycarbonate sheet will fix into powder coated tubular steel RHS frame. The polycarbonate sheet will have best expansion and contraction space when riveted into the frame.
