Slimcover machine protection cover, our sustainable space saver

Slimcover is our latest innovation for protective covers in machine tools. The flexible sheet metal cover is our most space-saving and sustainable solution for machine protection to date. Slimcover enables very good utilization of the installation space thanks to a significantly higher compression per fold with a low installation depth. The application-specific adjustment of the pre-tension during construction ensures reliable sealing against chips and smooth operation. The innovative modular design enables components to be separated by type and recycled, as well as reducing the use of materials with a focus on sustainability.

• highly flexible, modular combination of stainless telescopic sheets and high-performance plastic
• Innovative, patented assembly technology for easy disassembly and repair of components
• Very smooth-running thanks to application-specific adjustment of the preload during the design process

Advantages for our customers:

• Up to 60% lower Lmin/pleat compared to conventional bellows with metal sheets
• Very low installation depth for optimized use of space where space is limited
• High resistance to chips, dirt and even liquids thanks to uniform preload
• Easy disassembly of components and tool-free repair
• Components can be separated by type and recycled
