Emergency-stop assembly prevents machine operator injuries
- March 23, 2017
- Product Release
- Safety
Rockford Systems LLC has introduced a new cable and push-button emergency-stop assembly featuring cam operation for fast, positive stopping of metalworking machines without the risk of tripping caused by vibrations.
The CLM510 assembly also serves as an awareness barrier on the back side of shears and press brakes, as well as around the perimeter of other hazardous areas, for reducing risk.
The e-stop assembly includes a push-button switch with red mushroom-head button, indicator light and bulb, 21 ft. of red PVC-covered steel cable, and cable tension kit. Because the cable is interlocked with the switch, it will actuate an emergency stop if pulled or removed from a hook, leaving the machine inoperable. Machinery cannot restart until the switch is reset.
