the difference.
PROVEN STRENGTH
Troax machine guarding and machine safety
products meet all the requirements set in the
European Machinery Directive, 2006/42/EC –
requirements which your installation should
meet today as well as into the future when you
have supplemented or extended your machine
guarding system with new mesh panels, doors
and locks.
Step by step, we are developing the foundation
of our systems – our mesh panels. Theoretical
calculations are tested in our own test center.
The panels are tested using energies of up to
2,500 joules, which is a very respectable level.
If an accident were to happen, you should know

Smart Fix is our well-proven safeguard system
with many unique prope

tightened to the post and can easily be moved
up and down to adjust for uneven floors. Based
on the 60×40 post and the ST20 mesh panel it’s
tested to withstand an impact of 1,600 joules.
Combi Fix combines the well-proven strong
Smart Fix system with the flexible Rapid Fix
system. The lower bracket from Rapid Fix
makes it easy and quick to re-assemble and
the upper Smart Fix bolts are less sensitive to
uneven floors.

500, 700, 800, 1,000, 1,200 and 1,500 mm
in 2,050 mm height.
The Rapid Fix system offers a quick and easy
access to the hazard zone. Using a hex key
to dissassemble the fixing from the inside,
the panel is easily lifted out from the lower
slots. Put back in the slots again, the locking
mechanism snaps the panel back in position.
The Safe Fix bracket adjoins the panels
in front of each po
st, removing the gap
between panels and posts. With the
polycarbonate or steel sheet panels you can
create fully covered machine guarding for
applications with welding or splash risk.

500, 700, 800, 1,000, 1,200 and 1,500 mm
in 2,050 mm height.
Based on 80×80 posts and a strong bracket,
the Strong Fix system is the best alternative
for harsh environments or when the risk for an
impact is high. Together with the ST30 panels
the system has been tested to withstand an
impact of 2,500 joules.
Use the Base Fix foot to replace the posts –
it’s best suited for low-height partitioning.
The system without posts is quick to
assemble and tested to withstand an impact
of 309 joules.

Get a closer look
at our Safe Lock.
We think of safety in terms of keeping people,
property, and processes safe, and our Safe Lock
is designed accordingly. It will protect your
personnel and keep your production running,
and as basic as i
t may seem, it will make it easier to
keep your personnel safe at all times.
Your choice of Safe Lock is dependent on the
performance level required for the specific
machine guarding process, as well as your
preferred switch supplier. Troax offers a broad
variety of solutions to suit most switches, and you
can choose to have the Safe Lock supplied with
or without the switch included.

is in the details.
Troax’s automated production process ensures a
high quality for every panel produced. The stable
mesh panels have a well-knit structure making the
panel very strong and impact resistant.
Strong welding method
All horizontal wires are welded into the panel frame, joining the wires
and frame to form a strong mesh panel.
Unique profiled tubing
The horizontal tubes on our mesh panels have a unique profiled tubing
designed to make the welding stronger and the mesh flatter.

Show your true colours.
What is your favourite colour? Perhaps baby blue,
lemon or jungle green? Our mesh panels and
systems are available in any colour you would like,
although grey is the preferred colour.
An increasing number of Troax customers are choosing
non-standard colours for their mesh panels and systems.
Having a specific colour on safety walls in prod
uction
and warehouse areas can be an important part of the
company profile. Troax paints all products inhouse in any
RAL colour – from strong signal colours to harmonized
colour palettes.
Keep in mind that rules and safety requirements
for industrial settings with machines and automated
processes are stringent. The colour of mesh panels
surrounding a robot or machine must allow good
supervision. This is why most customers still choose our
standard colour grey, as it is the easiest to see through.
Panels and posts in the standard colours are kept on
stock for immediate delivery.
