Safety Guard to PD 5304:2005 Safety of Machinery

The safety guard is constructed from 40 x 40 x 3mm stainless steel box section and 3mm wire, 40mm aperture stainless steel weld mesh to meet the requirements of PD 5304:2005 Safety of Machinery. It would enclose the double pillar lifter to a height of 2200mm on three sides with a hinged door on the fourth side. The guard door is electrically and mechanically interlocked preventing the double pillar lifter from operating with the door open. In addition, the guard door can only be opened when the lifting carriage is at the full down position. The double pillar lifter control system has provision for a ‘Call for Product’ signal to be connected.

Double Pillar Lifter Application Story

This double pillar lifter was required to lift and tip confectionery products into a conveyor storage system. A selection of different confectionery was lifted, tipped and spread onto the storage conveyor until a level of approximately 250mm was achieved. The confectionery was then fed off the storage conveyor onto another conveyor at the beginning of a packing line.
