Protective enclosures - the solid design of the OptiSafe™

We are a manufacturer of protective enclosures for industrial machines and systems.

Our safety enclosures, also known as machine enclosures, naturally comply with the applicable standards of the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC. They offer safety, ease of use and good sound insulation. In addition, protective enclosures from Anva are practical and take safety requirements into account. Special designs or special dimensions are possible to provide a suitable solution. We also produce colored alternatives. A 4 mm thick polycarbonate pane is also available.

Areas of application for our OptiSafe range of protective enclosures:

  • OptiSafe protective housing for the plastics processing industry, automotive and electrical engineering as well as the pharmaceutical and chemical industries.
  • OptiSafe protective housing for robots, in robot welding systems, laser safety cabins and laser protective housing.
  • OptiSafe protective housing for production in manufacturing technology, sheet metal processing, punching and bending technology, machining as well as forming and joining technology.
  • OptiSafe protective housing for presses and their peripherals, metal saws, conveyor and transport systems.

Our crash test protective grids prove that this protective housing system is also very suitable for robot applications. It goes without saying that our OptiSafe protective housing complies with the applicable Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC. Our protective system offers sufficient safety clearance and also protection against crawling underneath. It is specifically not possible to climb over the system. This is also recommended by the new EN ISO 14120.

Protective enclosures - transparent and protective

Our protective enclosure system has 3 mm polycarbonate panes as standard. These are optionally available with clear or smoke-colored polycarbonate panes. Colored alternatives are also possible. A 4 mm thick polycarbonate pane is also available.

The PC element provides an optimum view of the system and can be mounted close to the danger zone without compromising safety.

Tests in our own production environment show that our protective enclosures are ideally suited for robot systems.

Anva protective enclosures naturally comply with the applicable standards of the Machinery Directive.

Machine guarding enclosures in various designs

Our machine enclosures successfully protect machines. Our protective enclosures also provide protection against flying sparks. They also effectively stop chips and hot or hazardous liquids.

We manufacture and supply protective enclosures for machines in standard sizes. Special sizes and special versions of Anva machine enclosures are available on request.

Safety enclosures for greater safety

Despite technical progress, the interaction between man and machine does not always run smoothly. Dangers arise, risks are misjudged and accidents are the result. These accidents can be largely avoided by taking appropriate safety measures. Safety enclosures, which ensure both the safety of employees and the unimpeded functioning of machines and systems, play a significant role in these measures.

We use protective enclosures in modern workshops, which make a significant difference to safety and the quality of work. In the past, working with machines was often associated with risks, especially when it came to flying sparks or flying metal shavings. With the installation of protective enclosures, the risk of such hazards is significantly minimized. These protective elements effectively catch everything from sparks to hot metal parts, providing comprehensive protection.

Our equipment is characterized by its high robustness and durability. There is a strong focus on safety, making them an essential part of any modern workshop. The introduction of protective enclosures has significantly improved working conditions by creating a safe environment. Workers can therefore concentrate fully on their work without having to worry about their personal safety or that of their machines.

The sense of security provided by our protective enclosures is invaluable. No workshop should be without them, as they not only increase safety, but also promote efficiency and concentration at work. They are an essential investment in any working environment that values safety and quality.

Safety enclosures offer safety for man and machine

From simple protective fencing to complex protective systems

Safety enclosures are special partition wall systems, covers or cabins that safely enclose machines and systems or even just safety-relevant system parts in order to minimize the danger they can pose.

Even a machine at rest harbors dangers, for example due to sharp edges, rough surfaces or openings. Machines in motion are more dangerous if dust, flying sparks or swirling chips are to be expected.

Protective enclosures specially tailored to the location, which consistently separate man and machine, can minimize the dangers posed by the machines. They should therefore be used wherever machines and systems pose a risk to employees, but also where the machines need to be protected from human intervention or flying parts.

Access to the machines can be ensured by special gates that are equipped with a safety device, for example to shut down the machine, as required. These can be electrically monitored safety fences or safety fences with light barriers. Safety enclosures can be adapted very flexibly to the respective requirements of the operation.

For some systems, a simple machine guard is sufficient, while others require a complex system including "warrior protection". A warrior guard is a construction consisting of slats and a bellows. For machine tools in particular, for example, there are so-called "bullet-proof" protective enclosures that completely seal off the machine from the outside world and thus ensure safe and undisturbed production. Depending on requirements, access to the machine can be via sliding, folding, lifting or roller doors.

Occupational safety 4.0: How protective enclosures increase safety

New technologies generate new fields of action for protective enclosures

New technologies require constant adaptation of occupational health and safety measures in all areas of the value creation process. Complex systems in production and logistics are constantly generating new fields of action for occupational health and safety.

There are around 15 million jobs in the manufacturing industry in Germany. Jobs that will continue to change in their processes as a result of digitalization, bringing with them ever new machines and systems. Artificial intelligence will also reshape this world of work. Suitable protective enclosures can be used to ensure the safety and health of employees, as well as to maintain the smooth functioning of machines, systems and robots.

Such protective equipment is expressly required by law. Annex I of the European Union's Directive 2006/42 sets minimum standards for basic health and safety protection with regard to the design and construction of machinery and equipment. They are intended to ensure that machines and systems that are traded and operated within the European Union already take certain safety standards into account when they are created. Among other things, the directive stipulates that precautions must be taken to protect workers from falling or ejected parts from the machinery. Safety enclosures meet these requirements in every respect. They are available in a wide variety of designs, tailored precisely to the needs of the respective company.
