Armoured covers

Armoured covers have seams that are welded, sewn and cemented, or a combination of both construction methods is used. The covers have hinged stainless steel plates, sometimes called louvers or lamellas, attached to them to stop damage from weld splatters or hot swarf. This construction method is ideal when there is not sufficient clearance to install a steel telescopic cover. This design is typically used horizontally or vertically, to protect machine ways with a heavy, sharp or high-temperature swarf load. The covers give excellent open-to-closed ratios & allow for high traversing speeds. They are usually mounted with a steel fixing plate at both ends.
