BladeStop 400 Meat Bandsaw
Reduce the risk of serious injury
BladeStop Improves Safety
The BladeStop 400 bandsaw is specifically designed for the Meat Industry to improve operator safety. BladeStop™ is uniquely designed to reduce risks of serious injury by mechanically stopping the bandsaw blade when the unit senses that a person has come in contact with the blade. With hundreds of installations worldwide Bladestop is fast becoming the manufacturing meat bandsaw of choice for workers in the Meat Processing Industry.
Available in two sensing methods
Upon sensing contact with the operator, the blade stops operating within 0.009 seconds. With the addition of GloveCheck sensing system detects operator gloves moving at high speed in a zone directly upstream from the saw blade and triggers the BladeStop™ mechanism to stop the meat bandsaw blade.
