Safety Where It Counts

These press curtain guards are widely used in the manufacturing and fabrication industries to guard operators from ejected parts and debris during machine use. The guards can easily be opened to load and inspect a part then closed and secured during press operation. Our 1/4″ weave 19-gauge hot-dipped galvanized steel or aluminized steel coiled wire fabric allows visibility of the machine process without sacrificing the operator’s safety. The safety curtains are commonly used by manufacturers needing a superior safety solution to protect their employees and prevent injuries caused by flying, rolling or sliding debris. Available in numerous sizes, our kits fit most hydraulic presses and equipment plus we can design and manufacture custom machine guards for special applications.
