SAFER AND MORE
PRODUCTION
GUARDIAN IS THE EASY CHOICE
Are you in charge of an operation running a bandsaw
and wanting to meet the combined challenge of
improving safety while not compromising productivity?
Manufactured in Auckland, New Zealand the Guardian
uses high speed vision technology to create a 3D safe
zone the entire length and all around the blade. Vision
detects the operator’s blue gloves when they come
within a certain distance of the blade and the Guardian
activates a braking system stopping the blade in a few
milliseconds.
The quick reset allows the bandsaw to be back up and
running a few seconds following a safety stop. There is
no damage to the blade as the braking system removes
any blade tension during braking.
Footage of each activation is
available on the bandsaw HMI
and on the Guardian portal so that
operators can analyse and correct techniques that
may have previously resulted in serious injury.
The Guardian provides lead data to managers to enable
proactive safety and productivity decisions. Lead data
provides machine uptime, blade change frequency and
reports to managers improving the decisions that they
make.
Providing a cut width of 300mm and up, the Guardian is
an innovative workplace culture improvement bandsaw.
Guardian Bandsaws can design and manufacture safe
bandsaws sized to suit customers needs.
ALL WRAPPED UP WITH ASTROLIFT
Wrapping pallets is one of the most common and
possibly overlooked areas of our workplace.

to dozens of pallets per day. It's a repetitive and
essential job in our industries, but what you may

and more efficient.
“We supply a range of SIAT pallet wrappers that are
specifically designed to help you safely increase the
productivity of your wrapping operations.
“We have both standard turntable wrappers that can
be either semi or fully automatic, and robotic pallet
wrappers that allow you to take the wrapper to the
load.”
“Our SIAT wrappers have a range of features
including up to 10-12 programmable cycles, IP54
rated electricals and multiple film carriage options for
