When should aluminum guarding be used instead of welded steel guards?

Extruded aluminum guards are ideal for applications that require flexibility, visibility, and frequent reconfiguration. They are commonly used in automated, robotic, or OEM environments where lighter weight, clean design, and adaptability are preferred over heavy-duty welded steel.

Are modular aluminum guards OSHA compliant?

Yes. When properly designed, modular aluminum guards can meet OSHA 29 CFR 1910.212 requirements for machine guarding. Custom engineering ensures correct panel spacing, height, access control, and hazard coverage.

Can modular aluminum guards be reconfigured if equipment changes?

Yes. One of the biggest advantages of modular aluminum guarding is its reconfigurability. T-slot framing allows panels, doors, and sections to be adjusted or expanded as production layouts evolve.

Can aluminum guards integrate with interlocks and safety controls?

Yes. Modular aluminum guards can be integrated with interlocked doors, gate switches, safety PLCs, light curtains, and lockout/tagout devices to create a control-reliable safeguarding system.
