• The welding screen uses tension from the roller base to keep the guard tight.
• The operator simply walks the guard from side-to-side of the work cell.
• When it is time to move material into or out of the work cell, the operator unlatches the guard, and walks it back to the roller base.
• Minimal pull force is required to extend the retractable welding scree
• Eliminates the effort of man-handling large sections of stationary guards
• Conserves floor space
• Protects against welding sparks, heat, ultraviolet light and flying debris
• The retractable welding screen extends 20'
• The welding shade can be easily replaced if damaged
• The spring tension roller is always taunt and automatically retracts
• When not in use the industrial retractable shade stores rolled up

Are the clear shades replaceable?

• Yes the clear shades are replaceable should they become damaged. You would simply contact AKON and we would provide you with directions and the replacement shade.

How do the shades attach to the opposing posts / wall?

• They utilize a simple J-hook design. Each shade has an aluminum bar that is held in place by two J-Hooks using the tension force of the shade. These are attached to an adjacent post or you can attach them to any existing structure you currently have such as a vertical wall or steel columns.

Can these be electrically interlocked so the machine they are guarding does not start until the shade is pulled shut?

As far as using safety interlocks and proximity switches that is something that you can do on site if you have a controls company or if you have a capable maintenance person working at your facility. We don't provide any of the electronic devices required to make that set up but it actually is fairly common with customers as a retrofit that they install. Customers typically do this so that they can make sure the curtain is pulled shut before the equipment starts working.
