Guards
Fixed guards are a physical barrier that are permanently attached to a machine and cannot be moved whilst it is in use. They are typically used to enclose the point of operation, or any other hazards that the operator does not need to interact with. This ensures the machine is safer and easier to use.
A Safe factory is
a productive one
Procter bespoke fixed machine guards are renowned for their quality, effectiveness and attention to detail.
Our machine guarding design experts have over 250 years of industry experience between them, as well as a thorough knowledge of current machine safety standards, regulations and HSE guidelines.
Customers from a broad range of industries trust us with their machine guarding, knowing that our design engineers can custom-design fixed guards that meet the safety standards, support high productivity, are maintenance-friendly and aesthetically pleasing.
Choice of materials
The advantage of this flexibility is that our designers are not restricted in the types of material they can specify, so customers benefit from a truly optimised bespoke guarding design.
