About us
We secure what moves.
For over 40 years, we have been a reliable partner for industrial safety technology. Our focus: securing machines, protecting people, and minimizing production downtime. From safety mats and bumpers to guard locking devices and interlocks, light curtains, and the first safety radar system – we offer customized solutions for optimal safety in automation and support our customers with expertise and high-quality products.
In addition to safety solutions, we also offer HMI technologies such as large-format displays and control elements to make processes visible and controllable.
With subsidiaries in the Czech Republic and Poland, we serve these growing markets directly.
Products & services
Safety Radar
The first certified volumetric safety system with radar technology can be used to safeguard areas where optical and tactile systems reach their limits due to environmental conditions (e.g. dust. smoke, steam, production waste). The controllers of the can be combined with both sensors as desired.
Safety Switches
The guard locking devices and interlocks are used in the form of key or key transfer systems, optionally with forced key removal, where the entire area of a machine or system is to be protected against access. Both mechanical and electromagnetic variants are available, as well as models with RFID.
Safety Mat
Area switching sensors are used for area protection in the entire industry and production automation. Stepping on the mat triggers an immediate "stop" command, so that dangerous movements are excluded.
Key Transfer System
A key transfer system contains keys that are mechanically locked or released after a specified sequence. The aim is to make it possible to enter the plant only when it is in a safe state.

Displays and Informationsystems
LED displays and industrial monitors support material- and energy-efficient production and thus enable cost savings. Andon and AssemblyVision systems enable fast and easy information display and transmission of production processes. The management can be done by own system software as well as by existing control or in-house software.
