Siemens has chosen Access for the protection of a production line employed in the packaging of cosmetics in the industrial area of Karlsruhe.
Siemens has chosen Accessafe to secure a cosmetics packaging facility in the Karlsruhe industrial area, built on a 37,000-square-meter site and capable of handling up to 12,000 packages per shift.
The extraordinary assembly speed of Meta1 patented systems made it possible to complete installation in the month of August thanks to the new kits to fix trhe system to special surfaces thus guaranteeing both aesthetic efficiency and the safety standards outlined in the European Machinery Directive 42/2006 and the C type standard EN 528/2008 “Safety requirements for storage and retrieval equipment”.
Access points were fitted with kits equipped with mechanical locks with different coded keys, fast evacuation systems, access control system and a universal passe-partout key for fire fighters.
The layout includes a manually operated door with an easy-open mechanism, designed entirely to order in accordance with the unique quality standards of Accessafe’s custom manufacturing.
For the area segregation we employed Penta guard fencing system, Meta1 patented fixing system with a welded DBS base-plate, access points were equipped with single and double leaf doors and special customized hand-operated guilottine doors.
This is our customer’s comment:
“Accessafe has been a reliable supplier to Siemens for several years now, and our relationship has grown stronger over time.
Our decision to use Accessafe safety grids for our automated handling and warehousing system was based on several factors that are also common to other safety system integrations in our facilities.”
- Full definition, during our project development, of fencing guard installation layout (3D rendering, details of fitted components);
- Possibility to define tailor-made components;
- Easy assembly and installation;
- Appropriate integration with Siemens’s safety sensors for access control.
