REDUCE THE RISK OF
SERIOUS INJURY, STOP
BANDSAW BLADES WITHIN
A FRACTION OF A SECOND
BladeStop™ is available worldwide and is uniquely designed
to reduce risks of serious injury by mechanically stopping
the bandsaw blade when the unit senses that a person has
come in contact with the blade. Bladestop is available in two
sensing methods. Upon sensing contact with the operator,
the blade stops operating within 15 milliseconds. This can
be a huge difference between having just a small skin cut or
an amputated finger.
The second sensing system detects operator gloves
moving at high speed in a zone directly upstream from
the saw blade and triggers the BladeStop™ mechanism
to stop the saw blade.
In both cases stops the blade in under 15 milliseconds.
BladeStop™ was developed by Machinery Automation
and Robotics in collaboration with MLA and AMPC.
