Roll Up & Walk On Aprons
fit meets function and flexibility
Flexible apron covers are a critical component of machine protection, such as guideway protection and exposed machine parts. They protect the operators from moving machine components, and they protect the machine from dirt, dust, hot chips, falling workpiece parts, and other debris as well as temperature flucuations in the working environment.
Our apron covers are fitted in highly complex modular systems. They are not only functional and space-saving, but also optically very appealing. Our apron covers are custom designed for your application.
Available as standard mounted, roll-up, or walk-on aprons (depending on the material), our apron covers can be fitted into highly complex modular systems.

FAQ'S
If machines are covered with a roller blind or a link apron, this cover serves to protect against dirt, dust, chips, grease, oil, chemicals, coolants, or splash. In addition, a machine cover can be useful as protection against access for the personnel. With the latter, safety is the focus, similar to pit covers.
Optimal protection is guaranteed when the protective cover is perfectly matched to the application and the environment. In addition to temperature resistance, other things to be considered are direct contact heat, corrosion protection, and splash water tightness. In other words, what conditions is the machine exposed to and what should it be protected against? The answers will be your criteria in selecting a cover.
