Machine Guarding Systems Versatile, Economical & Safe
Our Machine Guarding Systems offer a practical and durable solution for safeguarding personnel around automated equipment. These wire mesh barriers form a secure physical perimeter that helps prevent contact with hazardous machinery, ensuring plant safety and regulatory compliance.
Constructed from fully-framed welded or woven wire panels, the system is designed to withstand impacts, resist deformation, and remain maintenance-free. It also serves as a containment system for malfunctioning equipment, effectively minimizing risk. Panels bolt securely to steel posts, creating a rigid and reliable enclosure. Unlike electronic safety devices, these mechanical barriers provide constant protection and can be easily integrated with access doors and control systems for flexible use in industrial environments.
VARIETY OF PANEL OPTIONS
Machine guarding systems are available with a range of panel materials to meet specific safety and visibility requirements, including woven wire, welded wire, expanded metal, polycarbonate, and sheet metal.
INTERLOCKS
Machine guarding systems can be equipped with a variety of safety switches or interlocks, which are supplied with compatible mounting plates for seamless installation and enhanced operational control.
ENDLESS CUSTOMIZATION
WireCrafters can design and manufacture machine guarding systems tailored to meet your specific safety standards, ensuring full compliance and optimal protection in your facility.
Alternate Machine Guarding Systems
WireCrafters machine guarding systems often require integration of solid panels for added protection. Standard options include 16-gauge sheet metal and 1/4″ polycarbonate panels, both in stock for immediate use. Additional materials such as expanded metal and stainless steel panels are also available to meet specific environmental or durability requirements.
Machine Guarding Applications
Machine Guarding, Area Guarding, and Perimeter Guarding systems are widely used in environments such as weld cells, robotic cells, press brake stations, laser cutting areas, metal stamping lines, and punching operations. With hundreds of possible configurations, these systems are adaptable to nearly any industrial setting.
OSHA & ANSIRIA R15.06-2014 Compliant
As safety regulations become increasingly stringent, we are committed to reducing workplace hazards through advanced machine guarding and physical barrier systems. All products are designed with a focus on OSHA and ANSI/RIA compliance to help facilities meet current safety standards and protect personnel and equipment effectively.
Woven & Welded Wire Mesh Machine Guarding
Deluxe Systems offers high-performance machine guarding and perimeter barrier systems designed to protect personnel, equipment, and property in industrial environments. Available in standard heights of 5′, 8′, 10′, and 12′—as well as custom dimensions—these guarding systems are adaptable to meet a wide range of application requirements.
Our traditional woven wire systems feature 10-gauge wire in a 2″ x 1″ mesh configuration, welded into a 1-1/4″ x 1-1/4″ x 1/8″ angle frame for exceptional durability. For modern installations, we also provide the RapidWireHD™ system, built with 10-gauge welded wire in either a 1-1/4″ x 2-1/2″ or 2″ x 2″ mesh, supported by a 13-gauge rolled angle frame. Both systems offer reliable physical separation and comply with current safety standards, making them ideal for a wide range of safeguarding applications.
Easily Customizable & Configurable
Deluxe Systems provides modular machine guarding and perimeter protection solutions using high-quality wire mesh panel systems sourced from WireCrafters®. These systems are designed for flexibility, allowing multiple combinations of standard components to meet the specific layout and safety needs of any facility. A full range of accessories—including hinged and sliding doors, lift-out panels, and locking latches—is available to ensure seamless integration with equipment and workflows. Special color options are also offered to match facility aesthetics.
Both woven and welded wire configurations deliver a strong, clean appearance while offering the structural integrity needed for light, medium, or heavy-duty guarding applications. For enhanced efficiency, the RapidWire HD™ system features a modular design that reduces installation time by 20% to 25% compared to conventional systems. RapidWire HD™ is easy to plan, fast to install, and built to meet demanding safety standards.
