| Features |
| Steel/stainless steel design Commercial-quality steel is used to withstand the abuses of the machine shop environment. Standard sheet thicknesses range from 1.5 mm (16 gauge) to 3 mm (11 gauge). Other gauges are available depending on the application. |
| Guides Brass or non-metallic guides can be used on the covers. Small and medium size covers can be supported with non-metallic, low-friction guide shoes. |
| Interlocking design Wrap-around construction ensures precise location of individual cover sections and automatically provides the necessary initial preload for the flexible wipers. |
| Wiper systems High endurance, insertable polyurethane wipers keep the cover clean and seal out chips, dust and coolants. Abrasion- and coolant-resistant materials help ensure a longer life. |
| Support rollers To ensure smooth, accurate operation, large covers can be provided with rollers. Ball bearing, needle bearing and many other roller options are also available. |
| Options |
| High Speed Module Perfect guidance for high-speed covers up to 200 m/min (660 ft/min) and accelerations up to 2g over the entire traverse path. Ideal for linear motor machines. |
| Damping Elements (bumpers) Bumpers are used based on machine speeds. |
| Wedge Dampener (ME Module) Used to soften impact on the boxes. |
| Lifting Lugs For ease of installation, lifting lugs can be provided. |
| Way Extension Brackets Extend from the machine ways to provide support for the cover while it is in a compressed position. |
| Inspection Openings For quick, easy inspections, hinged or Plexiglas® panes may be specified. |
For any questions regarding the shapes and designs we offer for telescopic steel covers, please contact one of our specialists.
A flat, U-shaped design offering an economical solution for protecting slideways. Ideal for straightforward applications requiring reliable coverage.
A roof-shaped design that deflects coolant and swarf while increasing rigidity. Provides smooth guidance and improved structural performance.
An angled design that directs coolant and swarf in one direction. Helps maintain cleaner surfaces and supports efficient debris management.
A flat-roof style used on wider covers to maximize rigidity. Enhances structural strength and stability across larger surface areas
Available in AA, BB, CC, DD, and EE styles, these covers are adapted for cross-beam applications. Ensure consistent protection during horizontal motion.
Combines flat and sloped surfaces to improve coolant drainage. Folded edges add rigidity, increasing durability and overall cover performance.
Individual plates slide within guide rails, eliminating the need for slideways. Ideal for protecting column recesses and vertical machine components.
Unique applications call for unique engineering. We can custom design covers for dual axis movement, water-tight requirements, and almost any other machine tool applications.
Different requirements and environmental conditions, complicated slideway forms, and less than ideal spacial conditions of special machines demand close cooperation between our design engineers and the machine tool manufacturers.
Designed for multi-axis movement in tight spaces, typically behind tables or under spindles. Limited to three boxes unless guide rails are used.
By coupling a telescopic steel cover, a longer travel can be obtained. The box height above the ways, based on the same travel, is less with coupled telescopic steel covers than with one individual cover. The compressed length however is longer.
The gutter is formed as an integral part of the rear panel of the individual boxes. This version can be manufactured in a cover width of up to approximately 2000 mm
We can manufacture separate gutters for covers more than 2000 mm wide. In this design, a specially developed way wiper diverts the coolant along the inner side of the boxes. Due to its large cross-section, a separate gutter deflects the coolant optimally.
An attached coolant trough can be utilized with a variety of dimensions and is used mainly for large telescopic steel covers
Telescopic steel covers are only useful if they are fully functional at all times, ensuring minimized downtime. Hennig offers professional service and repair for all way covers (Hennig & non-Hennig brands) with a worldwide network of facilities.
Check out our blog:How To Tell If Your Telescopic Steel Waycover Needs a Repair Soon, which reviews the most common issues we see in our service centers.
Telescopic steel covers (TSC) are the industry recognized method of protecting guideways and other precision parts of machines from the ingress of chips and sharp-edged waste.

Steel covers are a heavy-duty solution which can protect in the harshest of environments and can also protect against tool or workpiece drops and, in the largest cases, when manufactured robustly enough can even be walked on. They help to increase the service life of equipment and are an essential part of machine tools.
We offer a wide range of services related to telescopic covers—for both Hennig covers and covers from other manufacturers. We repair, service, and replace components of your covers.
Hennig offers a bellow cover product range that runs the gamut to include covers for dust protection, sophisticated designs featuring extensions and/or lamellas, as well as designs for laser machines.
Telescopic steel covers provide durable protection of slideways and precision machine components from all types of chips and coolant. But way cover failure can result in machine damage and downtime. These are our top seven maintenance checks to avoid common issues that lead to downtime.
Both Hennig and its sister company, Advanced Machine & Engineering, now operate under the Hennig brand.
Same team. Same products. Same company. Different look.
Unifying the two brands under one name clarifies our offerings and makes them easier for you to navigate — one website, one team, one trusted partner.
