Style 840 Woven Wire Physical Barriers

Wire Partitions from WireCrafters are a simple, effective way to protect personnel from the dangers posed by automated equipment. These barriers are a strong, reliable, and economical solution to plant safety needs. System versatility allows easy integration of access doors or material handling openings with system controls.  Unlike hi-tech devices, this guard is always on duty, unaffected by power outages or electrical problems.  Also doubles as a potential safety net by containing objects ejected by a malfunctioning robot.  Crimped and woven wire mesh is resilient; resists dings, retains its shape, and looks better longer.

Interlocks
WireCrafters can supply your barrier with Fortress® electrical  interlocks or mounting plates for your own control system.  Please specify your preference when placing your order.  See details and offerings on our Electrical Interlocks page.
