 | Your factory floor isn’t a perfect rectangle. Neither should your safety system be. In high-density automotive assembly lines and robotic cells, standard “off-the-shelf” fencing often fails to clear building columns or fit within tight AGV corridors. We engineer custom-shaped Valla de Seguridad Industrial solutions that maximize your floor space without compromising ISO compliance. |
The “Square Peg in a Round Hole” Problem in Automation Layouts
If you are a System Integrator designing a robotic welding cell or a retrofit assembly line, you know the reality: the CAD drawing rarely matches the “as-built” factory floor. You are constantly battling against building columns, overhead cable trays, and existing conveyor systems.
Using standard 2000mm wide panels in these scenarios often results in “dead space”—gaps between the machine guarding and the equipment that are too small to be useful but large enough to waste valuable square footage. Worse, trying to force standard panels into non-standard spaces often leads to on-site cutting and welding. This destroys the powder coating, introduces rust points, and creates sharp edges that fail safety audits.
Complex layouts require modular adaptability, not rigid standard sizes.
Customization Capabilities: Adapting to the “Brownfield” Reality
The Mdfence system is designed with the understanding that “custom” is the new standard in modern manufacturing. We move beyond the rigid catalog limitations to offer precise fits for tight spaces.
- Variable Width Panels: We don’t just sell 1000mm or 1500mm panels. If your layout requires a 735mm panel to close a gap next to a structural pillar, we manufacture it to that exact dimension using our Q235 carbon steel framed mesh.
- Height Modifications: While 2000mm and 2200mm are standard, high-risk zones (like robotic palletizing cells with potential for flying debris) may require 2440mm or higher. We provide these extended heights while maintaining structural integrity.
- Engineered Cutouts: Conveyors, cable trays, and hydraulic lines need to pass through the fence. Instead of crude field cuts, we provide factory-engineered “Tunnel Guards” and framed cutouts. These maintain the structural rigidity of the 20x30mm frame and ensure no raw steel is exposed to corrosion.
Our framed panel architecture allows for custom sizing without losing structural rigidity.
Solving the Aisle Width Constraint with Smart Door Solutions
In tight spaces, the swing radius of a standard hinged door is often a luxury you cannot afford. A 1000mm swing door might block an AGV path or hit a nearby machine console when opened.
To address this, our Valla de Seguridad Industrial system includes space-saving alternatives:
- Trackless Sliding Doors: Ideal for wider openings where overhead clearance is available but floor space is not.
- Folding Doors (Bi-fold): The ultimate space saver. A folding door collapses into a fraction of its width, keeping the aisle clear for forklift or AMR traffic even when the cell is open for maintenance.
Folding doors minimize footprint in narrow industrial corridors.
The “120mm Advantage” for High-Cost Floor Space
Custom shapes aren’t just about physical fit; they are about Safety Distance (ISO 13857).
Many generic fences use 50x50mm mesh, which allows fingers to penetrate further, requiring the fence to be placed 200mm to 850mm away from the hazard. Our standard 20x100mm “finger-safe” mesh allows the fence to be installed as close as 120mm from the hazard.
For a 10-meter long production line, moving the fence 600mm closer saves 6 square meters of prime factory real estate. This allows you to fit more equipment into the same footprint, directly impacting your plant’s ROI.
Preguntas Frecuentes
1. Can you manufacture panels with cutouts for conveyor belts passing through?
Yes. We design and manufacture “Tunnel Guards” or framed cutouts specifically for conveyors. These are engineered to maintain ISO 13857 reach distances, ensuring that while the product can pass through, an operator cannot reach into the hazardous area.
2. What is the lead time for custom-sized panels compared to standard stock?
While standard panels (2000mm width) are in stock for immediate shipment, custom-sized panels typically require an additional 7-10 days for fabrication and powder coating. However, our modular post system often allows us to use standard panels for 90% of the layout and only customize the “filler” panels, keeping project timelines tight.
3. Can the fencing be installed on uneven floors or around drainage slopes?
Yes. Our posts feature adjustable mounting capabilities. For significant floor gradients common in wash-down areas, we can provide extended posts or adjustable footings to ensure the mesh panels remain level and aligned with robot cells.
4. Do you provide CAD files for us to integrate into our system layout?
Absolutely. We provide STEP/STP files for all our components. This allows your engineering team to check for interference with columns, cable trays, or robot reach envelopes before a single piece of steel is cut.
5. How do you handle “last mile” adjustments during installation?
Our system is designed with a specific tolerance in the connection clips. Additionally, we offer “Make-up Panels” or cut-to-fit kits that allow certified installers to make safe, framed modifications on-site if the actual building dimensions differ from the drawings.
