Machine Tool Safety Guards

Safety and Compliance Solutions

Our range of safety guards for machine tools are for when you have older workshop tools and production machinery.

While modern production machinery is manufactured to meet the requirements of PUWER 98, older machinery that may still be critical to your business might not comply with these standards.

Lathe and Chuck guards

Our range includes lathe guards and saddle protection shields for various lathe models commonly used in tool rooms, R&D workshops, prototyping, small-batch production, and education/training establishments. All our lathe guards are designed to aid compliance with PUWER (Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998) without hindering production.

Contact us now for assistance in selecting the correct lathe or chuck guard for your business.

Milling Machine Guarding

We offer two styles of milling machine guards that cover most milling machines used in machine shops and small workshops. If these standard guards aren’t suitable for your manual milling machine or CNC milling machine, we can modify them or create cost-effective bespoke guards to fit your needs.

Our milling machine guards help employers meet their PUWER obligations for manual and CNC milling machines, ensuring compliance with safety regulations.

Protective Screens

Protective Screens

Nelsa GWG protective screens are designed for off-hand grinders and bench grinders, while Nelsa MAG magnetic-based chip shields are suitable for use with machines like small milling machines, drills, grinders, and bandsaws, in combination with other guards.

Both types of screens find applications in tool rooms, R&D workshops, prototyping, small-batch production, and education/training establishments. They aid compliance with safety regulations and standards when correctly installed and adjusted.
