Fiessler AKAS II

The Press brake Laser Guarding System AKAS-II is a special protective device for press brakes. It consists of transmitter, receiver and controller – switching unit. The AKAS-II transmitter gereates two modulated visible red laser beams. The AKAS-II receiver consists of three detecting elements and of one evaluation unit. Transmitter and receiver are fixed to the ram of the machine and form a Laser-optical safety light grid, which is located in front of the bending punch. With the Laser-optical safety light grid AKAS®-II the hands remain free for handling the slug during the operation under continuous protection of the extremities during the whole bending process.

• Innovative finger guarding system for press brakes by following laser optical safety light grids in front of the tool.
• Finger guard works during the foot pedal controlled bending process => hands remain free for operation with the slug.
• Increase of productivity due to programmable adaptation of the AKAS® II to the individual overrun traverses of the machine.
• Short change-over times due to all-automatic change-over to other tool sizes.
