Automation Protection

Modern automation delivers speed and performance, but it also introduces hazards that must be controlled. The movement of robots, robotic arms, and automated systems can create impact and ejected-object risks in surrounding work areas, requiring protection engineered for automated production.

Safe automation starts with a clear understanding of the regulatory framework defined by ISO standards and the European Machinery Regulation. Effective machine guarding must do more than create a barrier. It must control access to hazardous areas, withstand the forces generated by automated processes, and contain risks to reduce exposure.

Troax delivers proven protection through machine guarding systems engineered for strength, reliability, and compliance. Rigorously tested for impact resistance and designed in line with machinery safety requirements, Troax solutions protect people, secure production environments, and support operational continuity in high-risk automated applications.

• Provide your staff with reliable protection from machinery
• Prevent unwanted access to critical assets
• Meet the requirements set in the Machinery Regulation (EU) 2023/1230

BlueGuard, the hygienic protection
BlueGuard is Troax’s stainless steel machine guarding system developed for regulated industries where hygiene and compliance are essential. Its corrosion-resistant construction and hygienic design support frequent cleaning processes while providing reliable safeguarding around automated equipment.

• Meets EN 1672-2 and EN ISO 14159 hygiene requirements
• Designed for the food and beverage and pharmaceutical industries

Safe Fix, the fully enclosed protection
Unlike other Troax fixing systems, Safe Fix brackets are mounted behind the panels rather than between them. Combined with transparent polycarbonate or solid steel panels, the system creates a continuous, gap-free machinery enclosure, allowing operations to remain either visible or concealed as required. The system is ideal where a solid panel enclosure is needed, for example to contain liquid splashes or protect operators from hazardous optical radiation, such as laser beams or the intense light generated during welding.

• Continuous machinery enclosure without gaps
• Ideal for welding operations
