Housings

Technical Data

Listing2

Basically the housings consist of a stable aluminium profile construction with polycarbonate panes and a cable grommet at their back

Listing2

There is a great scope of individual variations; so, among other possibilities, we can equip the housing of your CAM system with:

Listing2

Double gate for alternatingly loading workpieces from the front and back

Listing2

Additional access doors for maintenance and workpiece loading

Listing2

Slots for pushing your workpieces through to the back

Listing2

Complete housing with ceiling

Sound-insulating measures

Additional safety devices

For choosing the proper housing, please start with one of the following 4 basic types which can still be varied accordingly:

 

Housing With Light Grid

 
Housing light grid

Closed on 3 sides (height of the side panels 111 cm) open at the top, front secured with light grid

 

Housing With Lift Gate

Closed on 3 sides (height of the side panels 111 cm) open at the top, front secured with pneumatic lift gate (closes automatically during the working process)

 

Housing With Folding Doors

Closed on 3 sides (height of the side panels 111 cm) open at the top, front secured with folding doors (with safety contact, optionally with locking)

 

Housing With Covering Cap

Suitable Machine Lines

 

A housing especially improves the safety of the machine and the cleanliness of its surroundings. It prevents greater amounts of chips from spreading around in your workroom and gives you a protection against touching moveable machine parts accidentally. By standard, the housing is made of fixed side and rear panels which have polycarbonate windows. For the front side there are four solutions with different security levels available. A basic protection will be established by a dense grid of light barriers. If someone intervenes into the danger zone, the machine will stop. A housing with folding doors or covering cap prevents nearly completely that chips or cooling liquid pollute the surroundings of the machine. It is also a protection against parts which may fly around and lowers the noise level. If someone opens the door, the machine will stop. The housing with pneumatic lift gate ensures the best protection against unwanted interventions as the lift gate remains always closed during the working process and cannot be opened manually.

Starting from the basic types shown here, it is possible to construct a multitude of different customer-specific housings. So just tell us the exact circumstances at the installation site of the CAM system and we can offer you the appropriate housing construction. For safety reasons, CAM systems that are not equipped with a dust extraction unit have to be equipped with a housing.

 
CAM 1010 Premium

CAM 1010 Premium with three-sided housing and pneumatic lift gate (extra option: back-tilting gate for installation in low-ceilinged rooms).

CAM 2325 Premium Light grid

Four-sided protection of the machine by a light grid, without an additional housing with panes. If someone intervenes during the machining process in the range of the light grid, the machine switches to the “halt” mode. We recommend this especially for larger machines, which shall remain freely accessible for loading the workpieces.

CAM 450 lift gate

Three-sided housing of a CAM 450 Classic with pneumatic lift gate. The height of the side panels is 111 cm. The door will be automatically closed during the machining process.

CAM 220 covering cap

Housing with covering cap on a CAM 220 Classic. The covering cap will be opened by hand; it has a safety contact which switches the machine to the “halt” mode when it is opened during the machining process.

 
CAM 1020 Premium folding doors

Three-sided housing of a CAM 1020 Premium with folding doors at its front and two more folding doors at both sides in the rear area of the machine. With the two rear doors it will be made easier for you to load and adjust your workpieces. The front doors are open in our image, the two rear doors are shut.

CAM 1010 Premium sound-insulated

Complete housing of a CAM 1010 Premium with lift gate (here opened and not to be seen on the image). The machine has an additional top housing incl. ceiling lighting with an extra-thin LED panel. The three walls and the ceiling are sound-insulated.
