Seamless modular combination with ST20 wire mesh panels within one perimeter

Troax Smart Fix bracket and panel mounting system

The patented Troax Smart Fix bracket system is engineered in strict compliance with the European Machinery Regulation. Captive bolts remain securely held within mounting brackets, preventing loss during routine servicing and access disassembly.

Captive fasteners meeting mandatory Machinery Directive safety criteria
Rapid assembly and precise alignment onto 60x40 mm and 80x80 mm vertical posts
Resilient performance against continuous machine vibration and cyclic fatigue
Integrated compensation for uneven floor surfaces and perimeter angular shifts

Troax Safe Lock door safety latches and interlocks

Mechanical and electromechanical Troax Safe Lock interlock assemblies integrate smoothly into hinged, sliding, and telescopic gates. These assemblies support mounting safety non-contact sensors and solenoid trapped-key interlocks.

Direct compatibility with safety switches from Fortress, Euchner, Schmersal, and Sick
Built-in panic release mechanism enabling emergency escape from inside hazardous zones
Heavy-duty forged metal enclosure engineered to withstand industrial wear and abuse
Flexible configuration on hinged, folding, and overhead sliding doors up to 6 meters

Troax Anti-Collapse pallet racking safety mesh systems

The Troax Anti-Collapse mesh screening system is mounted to the rear face of high-bay pallet racking. The resilient barrier prevents accidental fall of loaded pallets or individual cartons into aisles and forklift traffic corridors.

Rigid 50x50 mm welded mesh modules supported by cantilever standoff brackets
Containment of unstable pallets and loose items weighing up to 1000 kg
Rigorous compliance with European warehouse safety regulations and standards
Protection of pedestrian walkways, order picking stations, and reach trucks

Industrial development of Troax and global machine safety standards

Founded in 1955 in Hillerstorp, Sweden, by the Axelsson brothers, Troax has grown from a specialized steel fabricator into the premier global authority on industrial perimeter protection.

Today, Troax Group AB operates eight advanced manufacturing plants across Europe, the Americas, and Asia-Pacific, delivering safety guarding systems to more than 15,000 corporate clients globally.

All Troax guarding systems undergo rigorous development and testing to comply with international safety criteria, notably EN ISO 14120 for fixed and movable machine guards and EN ISO 13857 establishing mandatory safety distances.

These standards ensure dependable containment and protect plant personnel from ejected machine debris, flying workpieces, and hazardous mechanisms.

Troax ST20 mesh panel architecture and workspace footprint optimization

The modular Troax ST20 wire mesh panel series forms the industry benchmark for isolating automated machine lines and robotic cells.

Engineered with an electrically welded 20x100 mm mesh pattern crafted from 3 mm drawn steel wire, the panels maintain superior structural rigidity while offering clear, unobstructed sightlines across hazardous machine operating zones.

With a 20x100 mm aperture, the standard safety clearance distance from the fence to the hazardous motion envelope is minimized to 120 mm.

This narrow clearance allows manufacturing teams to install compact guarding envelopes tight around multi-axis machining centers, presses, and material handling systems, conserving valuable plant floor space.

Heavy-duty ST30 steel panels and impact-resistant ST PC polycarbonate screens

For severe industrial environments subject to extreme kinetic energy risks, Troax engineers heavy-duty ST30 panels.

Featuring an enclosed 30x20 mm structural tubular steel frame with 1.5 mm wall thickness, the panel absorbs mechanical impact forces up to 2000 joules, securely restraining heavy ejected metal tooling, severed clamps, and workpiece fragments during catastrophic machine collisions.

In wet machining, surface grinding, or welding cells where cutting fluids and incandescent sparks pose severe risks, Troax ST PC solid panels provide an impenetrable barrier.

Composed of 3 mm impact-rated optical polycarbonate, these shields deliver complete protection against hot chips and chemical mists while maintaining distortion-free visibility for operators.

Patented Smart Fix and Rapid Fix mounting brackets under Machinery Directive

The proprietary Troax Smart Fix bracket assembly eliminates fastener losses during routine machine maintenance and tooling changes.

Engineered in compliance with the mandatory European Machinery Regulation, captive bolts remain retained inside bracket recesses even when mesh panels are completely dismounted from uprights, ensuring prompt and error-free reinstallation by plant technicians.

For machinery requiring rapid toolless access, Troax provides the Rapid Fix quick-release variant utilizing robust spring-loaded retaining latches.

Solid 60x40 mm and heavy-duty 80x80 mm vertical posts feature heavy-gauge floor baseplates with expanding anchor bolts, compensating for industrial concrete floor level variations.

Door systems, sliding gates, and Troax Safe Lock interlock assemblies

Troax engineers a comprehensive line of access entryways including single and double hinged doors, linear sliding gates, telescopic tracks, and overhead cantilever systems with openings up to 6 meters.

Every entryway is fitted with heavy-duty roller bearings, adjustable travel stops, and vibration-damped floor guides to guarantee smooth continuous plant cycling.

The Troax Safe Lock assembly features a rugged forged-metal enclosure and an emergency panic release handle that allows immediate mechanical egress from inside an isolated zone.

Mounting faces accept standard safety limit switches, trapped-key systems, and RFID interlocks from Fortress, Euchner, Schmersal, and Sick.

Anti-Collapse pallet racking safety screening for automated logistics hubs

Safety throughout automated high-bay warehouses and distribution facilities is maintained by installing Troax Anti-Collapse mesh screening across the rear elevations of pallet racking.

The resilient 50x50 mm welded steel mesh mounted on cantilever bracket standoffs stops pallet loads and individual cartons from toppling into forklift transit aisles.

The Anti-Collapse barrier is engineered to retain palletized inventory loads weighing up to 1000 kg in the event of load shifting or forklift positioning errors.

Robust clamping onto vertical uprights safeguards order picking associates, mobile automated guided vehicles, and reach truck operators from high-elevation falling hazards.
