Machine Guarding & EHS Safety Cells
We don't just sell orbital wrappers; we engineer fully integrated, zero-touch automated cells. Designed to clear rigorous EHS (Environmental, Health, and Safety) CapEx reviews, our systems natively integrate perimeter fencing, hardwired PLC interlocks, and predictive diagnostics to eliminate ergonomic liabilities and forklift hazards from the factory floor.
Physical Guarding & ANSI B11.19 Compliance
We engineer our systems in strict adherence to the EHS Hierarchy of Controls and ANSI B11.19 machine guarding standards. The primary objective is to physically isolate the operator from the wrapping ring's high-speed rotation and the pinch-point hazards of the motorized conveyors.
Zero-Access OSHA Compliant Workflow
Watch this Dynawrap Pro 1100 deployment unitize stacks of ICF (Insulated Concrete Forms). By bridging customer-supplied motorized metal rollers with our native VFD belt drives inside a high-visibility perimeter, this setup establishes absolute Forklift Separation and a zero-access automated workflow.
Hardwired Safety Architecture
PLC Safety Protocols
We refuse to trap EHS teams in proprietary black boxes. Our systems natively support the industry's most rigorous network safety standards to ensure deterministic shut-downs.
- CIP Safety & PROFIsafe: Integrated natively over EtherNet/IP and PROFINET.
- Robot-Safe Interlocks: Hardwired I/O designed to handshake with FANUC, ABB, and KUKA safety scanners.
Tier-1 Electrical Interlocks
When an operator hits the E-Stop or breaches a cell door, stopping torque immediately is non-negotiable. We engineer our control systems in strict accordance with ISO 13849-1 to achieve Cat 3 / PLd (Performance Level D) safety reliability using globally recognized components.
- cULus / CSA Listed Panels: Fully certified electrical enclosures engineered for North American fire, safety, and electrical codes.
- Schneider Electric Core: Factory-standard E-Stops, high-load contactors, and Solid State Relays (SSR).
- Physical Micro-Switches: Redundant carriage door interlocks (Fault E12) physically sever drive capabilities if the stretch film housing is unsecured.
- Lockout/Tagout (LOTO): Distinct, highly visible pneumatic and electrical isolation points engineered for safe maintenance access.
Optical, Sensor & Acoustic Protection
Preventative systems ensure the machine acts intelligently before human intervention is required, protecting both the operator and the payload.
- Acoustic Pre-Start Warning: Factory-standard 3-second audible alarm signals the floor to clear the wrapping zone before crown rotation begins.
- Safety Light Curtains: Optional integration to instantly kill drive motors if the staging threshold is breached.
- Anti-Fall Outfeed Sensors: End-of-line photo-eyes automatically halt the conveyor drive to prevent products from overrunning the discharge table.
Custom HMI Relocation
To maintain strict EHS perimeter compliance, the HMI touch-panel can be relocated to the exterior of the safety cell (as seen in the deployment above).
- Zero Perimeter Breaches: Operators can execute recipes, view telemetry, and clear alarms without ever entering the yellow safety zone.
Proactive Software & Predictive Diagnostics
LUMI™ 3D Vision & Stretch Secure™
Safety is proactive, not just reactive. By integrating the optional LUMI™ 3D Algorithmic Vision system, an Intel depth-sensing camera volumetrically scans the incoming payload and automatically pushes the optimal wrapping parameters to the PLC. Zero manual tuning means zero reasons for an operator to approach a moving machine.
Furthermore, the Stretch Secure™ System actively monitors the film tension during the high-speed orbital cycle. In the event of a film break, the PLC auto-stops the machine instantly. This prevents loose stretch film from tangling in the high-torque rollers, eliminating catastrophic mechanical jams and severe tripping hazards before they occur.
Predictive Telemetry: Network access to VFD fault codes, motor speeds, and current loads allows your maintenance team to catch mechanical stress before it becomes an emergency breakdown.
