Base Guardian

The Base Guardian™ system requires six wires and continuously monitors only the pallet in the machining envelope. The pallet being loaded is ignored during the unload/reload process until it enters the machine. Once inside the machine enclosure, Guardian's™ "focused field" monitors the pallet. Accomplish immediate full-time machine communication by wiring directly into a feed-hold or e-stop control. Guardian notifies your machine immediately of any critical pressure loss.
