Engineered for today’s manufacturing environments, Rite-Hite’s Defender protects workers from hazardous motion while safeguarding equipment and automated processes. It’s a high-speed, high-cycle automated door that separates machine operators and manufacturing processes while maintaining visibility. Its compact roll-up design leaves a minimal footprint, making it ideal for space-constrained manufacturing cells. Defender is an effective safeguarding device for robotic welding cells, material handling, automated assembly, palletizing/packaging machinery and other applications that require electronic safeguarding devices. It protects against fumes, sparks, smoke, mist, flying debris, excess noise and other common manufacturing process byproducts. As robotics and automation systems adoption grows, Defender meets demands for more comprehensive machine guarding to help protect people, equipment and processes. Defender features a durable curtain material that resists a wide array of application-driven hazards, along with an optional variable frequency drive to control curtain speed. Its quick-disconnect cables allow for easier installation and integration than comparable barrier doors. Rite-Hite, ritehite.com/en/am, Booth 531
