Coated Fabric Bellows
Industrial coated fabric bellows are great for dust protection, laser machines, and guideways that don't see high chip loads.
Machine Tool Ecosystem
Protect Your Ecosystem with Bellows Systems
Machine bellows do more than cover exposed ways. They help protect rails, bearings, operators, and machine performance from coolant spray, impact, and harsh operating conditions. Hennig helps manufacturers protect machines with rugged, custom-built protection solutions engineered for stroke length, fold pattern, and tight machine clearances.
FLOW BREAKERS
Tired of bellows that wear out too quickly in harsh machine environments?
When machine bellows fail, critical components are left exposed to chips, coolant, debris, and unnecessary wear. Poor-fit or weak protection can lead to more maintenance, reduced machine reliability, and costly downtime. A better machine protection approach helps you keep moving components covered, protect machine performance, and support longer-lasting operation in demanding environments.
Exposed ways and rails that increase risk of damage and injury
Coolant spray that creates mess and compromises machine protection
Cheap covers that tear, jam, or fail under high-speed operation
Impact damage that shortens cover life in demanding environments
Poor-fit covers that create clearance and motion problems
Downtime caused by worn or unreliable machine protection components

Our Solutions
Machine Bellows Solutions Built for Rugged, Custom-Fit Protection
From coated fabric and molded rubber bellows to steel lamella and round bellows, Hennig offers machine protection solutions built to match your machine’s motion, clearance, and environmental demands. These solutions help protect critical components, reduce cover failure, improve operator safety, and support more reliable long-term machine performance.
Fixed Steel Lamella Bellows
Developed for tough requirements, the lamellas are made from stainless steel to protect the bellows against red hot, sharp-edged swarf and mechanical strain.
Hinged Steel Lamella Bellows
Vertically mounted bellows with no overhang, hinged lamella bellows are the perfect solution for protection of the Z-axis from hot/sharp chips, weld splatter, and any other debris from the machining environment.
Modular Steel Lamella Bellows
Lightweight, interlocking steel fins with an extremely high compression ratio. These designs connect modularly without requiring a folded bellow for support.
Roof Bellows
Protect against dust, particles, and other debris from escaping or entering the roof of the machine tool.
Rubber Bellows
Maximum protection against water, oil, chemicals, and high temperatures — ideal for lead screws, shafts, and irregular-shaped parts.
Machine Tool Ecosystem
Why Hennig
Hennig brings together rugged construction, application-driven engineering, and decades of machine tool expertise to create bellows solutions that hold up in tough environments. By building each cover to your machine’s stroke, fold pattern, and clearance requirements, we help protect critical components, improve operator safety, and support long-term machine reliability.
Improve performance now. Build for what’s next.
You’ve got big plans for your future operation, but you may not be able to realize them all right now. Building out a complete system-engineered ecosystem delivers immediate performance gains through well-matched components, while enabling phased upgrades. This allows you to:
- Eliminate costly upfront fit and function headaches
- Layer on capabilities like automation and high-pressure coolant systems
- Add advanced workholding without re-engineering
Built for harsh environments and demanding cycles
Stronger components enable longer unattended cycles and reduce fatigue from manual intervention or unexpected stoppages. Hennig’s standard builds are designed for harsh environments and demanding cycles—without upcharges. You can count on:
- Thicker sheet metal
- Reinforced conveyor chains
- Robust sealing
Fit your machine. Fit your process. Fit your future.
Your system will easily fit your current operation while remaining scalable as your needs change. Sales engineers start with the parts you’re running and the cycles you're targeting, then tailor additional recommendations based on your goals, including:
- Futureproofing for new automation
- Enabling volume and capacity growth
- Maximizing part quality and tolerance capabilities

CNC Machine Tool
Even the best CNC machines are only as good as their peripheral equipment. If systems aren’t built to work together, jams, crashes, and tolerance errors will cause downtime and scrap costs.
Machining Automation
CNC shops keep pallets moving and machines cutting nights, weekends, and short-staffed shifts with Hennig’s WorkFlow automated pallet delivery system.
