Complete service for machinery safety applications

The company recognises the difficult balance that customers have to make between meeting health and safety legislation requirements and managing their demanding production needs. Smartscan therefore designs and manufactures systems to meet the particular needs of its customers' safety applications – from single machines to full production lines.

Customers benefit from a service that covers everything from the provision of initial safety advice through to regular maintenance of safety systems. Included within this is advice about safety standards, risk assessments, safety system design, safety product supply, and safety system installation.

When it comes to machinery safety, it can be a complicated process to balance safety requirements against equipment costs. Nevertheless, Smartscan says it can provide a 'balanced solution', and it can also support its distributors when customers choose to work with them instead.

Smartscan also has specialists with expertise in particular application areas who can provide the high level of knowledge that is required for machines such as power presses and press brakes.

Over the years, Smartscan has successfully applied its innovative approach to applications for a variety of customers and industries. This has included working on machine safety projects with Siemens, dealing directly with large-scale operations such as Coca-Cola, and developing guarding systems for single machines for small start-up businesses. Applications have ranged from cold stores to hot metal forging, and from abattoirs to high-tech pick-and-place machines.
