X-Y covers with laminations

The dynamic protection for machine tool guides is a moving barrier on the X and Y axes of modern industrial machines.

The X-Y SHIELD is a double cover protection solution of P.E.I. that separates the machining area from the motor compartment. This protective wall is composed of four thermic-welded bellows with stainless steel laminations and has a stroke limitation system.
This solution combines convenience and robustness with an extremely attractive appearance and reduced weight.
The system offers double protection, as the laminations protect the bellows from hot and sharp-edged chips, while the fabric material safeguards the guides from the inlet of oils and coolants.
The X-Y Shield system achieves travel speeds of up to 120 m/min. and accelerations of 2g.
This cover is widely used on horizontal and vertical machining centres of small, medium and large dimensions.
