OVERVIEW
When you need a single sided guard and want to maintain a small footprint, then you can use the roller shade guard and covers by Akon. These roller shade guards are ideal for protecting pinch points on machines, lift tables, cnc mills, and many other types of machines.Designed for lengths up to 100 and widths up to 100â€, these rollers guards can cover a large opening. They can also be fabricated as small as 12 x 12 for applications where only a small opening has to be covered.
Rugged Roller Shade Guard Construction
Roller Assembly Each roller contains a spring assembly which takes up the slack and keeps the material tight as the moving part retracts. This ensures that the material will not become tangled in the machine which could potentially damage components or allow access into dangerous areas.
Flat Steel Bar Mount At the end of each of the roller shade covers is a flat steel bar that is inside of a sleeve. This flat bar allows you to drill holes into it and bolt it to the machine. Once bolted, the roller shade guarding will not come undone.
High Duty Cycle Applications where a machine cycles over a hundred times an hour requires a roller shade guard which will withstand the heavy use. Our line of roller shade covers are made of high quality components which will not breakdown due to this excessive use.
Mounting Brackets You can choose to have Akon include the mounting brackets which will anchor the cover to the floor, machine or any other surface you choose. These mounting brackets come equipped with holes ready for bolting.

How Roller Shade Guard Works
How Roller Shade Guard Works
A roller shade guard works through a simple rolling mechanism that allows a protective shield to extend retract when access to the machine as needed. The guard is affixed to a roller tube, which keeps the material tidy when it's not needed.
The shade gets puled down to create a protected barrier around the machine during operation. This protects not only your expensive machinery but your machine operators as well. Once the task is done, the shade can be pulled back neatly to its casing so your production area stays clean and organized.
These shades find their most frequent applications near CNC machines, welding stations, automated machinery, and other industrial setups where both protection and space efficiency are paramount.
