Multi-Gate Access Control – 3PL
Multi-Gate Access Control Guide for the 3PL industry. Maximise safety, minimise downtime with the Fortress Safety Solution.


Warehouse Automation – Robotic Palletiser
Case study showcasing robotic palletiser safety in an automated warehouse.


Automotive Manufacture Safety – Body Shop
Long production lines operating alongside heavy industrial machinery, lots of entrances and frequent access can make gate interlock installation inefficient and costly.


Construction Materials – Brick Forming
In large brick forming facilities, parallel conveyors can be used to transport bricks between the hazardous forming process to the packaging and palletiser areas.


Paper / Pulp – Recycling Facility
Recycling processes that involve machining paper & pulp can create dust, dirt and often require heavy duty wash-down procedures to clean machinery and remove byproducts.


Paper Machine Safety and Preventing Machine Restart – Roller / Winder
In paper production, access to machinery is required on a frequent basis. Whilst performing access, it is crucial to have measures which prevent unexpected restart to keep operators safe from harm.


Construction Materials – Instantaneous Access to a Brick Setter
Instant access to machinery can be achieved with a monitoring only interlock. When whole body access is also being performed in these locations, measures should be designed to mechanically prevent unexpected restart. Learn more about the Fortress Solution in this article.


Construction Materials – Clay Extrusion Silo Safety- Whole Body Access & The Escape Release
Designing a safeguarding solution for whole body access with an escape release. When are Proactive Inhibit Functions unnecessary for safe access? Learn more about the Fortress Solution in this article.


Human Machine Interface – Warehouse Automation
Human Machine Interface is often used to support hazardous processes. How can you prevent the wrong people accessing these devices?


Pallet Conveyors with Interlock and Integrated RFID Access
Pallet conveyors require access in normal operation, however making sure the right operators are performing tasks is critical.
