Safety

Operator protection, engineered into the machine.

NTM machines ship with guard interlocks, a power-interruption safety circuit, and on-controller operator alerts as part of the design. Paired with one-on-one operator training, that is how a crew runs the machine day in and day out.

Built-in safety systems

What is on the machine

The protective equipment that ships as part of an NTM machine. Each is a system on the machine, not an add-on.

  1. 01

    Guard-detect interlock

    Cover & Guard Sensors

    RFID cover sensors detect when guards are in place. With a guard removed, the UNIQ control system enters maintenance mode and the automatic run, shear, and programming functions are disabled.

  2. 02

    Operator alert

    Shear Warning Strobe

    A strobe on the controller signals before the shear actuates, so the operator has a visual cue at the point of operation.

  3. 03

    Power-loss handling

    Power Interruption Safety Circuit

    A dedicated circuit governs how the machine responds to a loss of power, so a power interruption does not leave the drive in an uncontrolled state.

  4. 04

    Feed verification

    Panel & Gutter Recognition

    The control system recognizes the loaded profile before a run, confirming the machine is set up for the material it is about to form.

  5. 05

    Point-of-work visibility

    Interior LED Lighting

    Interior LEDs light the forming area so the operator can see the coil path and rollers during setup and operation.

  6. 06

    Hands-on, no cost

    Operator Training

    Every new machine owner gets one-on-one operator training, where safe operation is covered alongside running the machine and the profiles.

Safe operation

Run it right

The equipment is half of it. These walk an operator through safe day-to-day use, from first training session to the practices that keep a crew out of trouble.
