Axelent’s X-Guard has a unique and extremely smart design that is quick to assemble, easy to renew, change and supplement to suit different applications. Axelent has put safety and functionality in focus when producing the new system in order to ensure the best possible machine guard. The system is an entirely new series of machine guard that meets the updated requirements of the Machinery Directive (2006/42/EG) for fixed guards. The change comes into force on 29/12/2009 and means that attachment devices must remain in place on the guard or on the machine when the guard is removed. The heart of the system is a special tool – the X-Key.
