Sentry Guarding System Advantages
A Typical Guarding Assembly
Shown above is a typical guarding panel consisting of:
1x Top Panel
1x Bottom Panel
2x Guarding Post
Simpler and Safer Guarding Solution.
Design Features
Compliant with AS/NZS 4024.3610/3611
Robust design with low deflection
Low design implementation time
Cost effective solution
Low complexity of mesh bends
No welding required for guarding panel
Minimum welding for guarding post
Easy Installation and removal
Mass production of components through tooling
Not hot works required for repairs on site
Stocked components for replacement/repairs
Minimum dust/material build-up on locking mechanism and posts

Competitive Advantage
Downsides
• Complex design
• Intricate assembly
• Heavy guarding post
• Bulky package for transport
• Complex configuration not
possible (corner or T-junction
not possible)
• Fabrication complexity
• Thread inspection and rework
required after HDG
• High number of components
• Dust/material build-up inside
cup style
Features
• Simplified Guarding Post
• Less overhang
• Quick and easy assembly
• Less point of failure
• Lighter guarding post
• Compact package for transport
• Complex configuration possible
(corner, T or Quad junction is
possible)
• Easy fabrication
• No inspection or rework required
after HDG
• Reduced number of components
• Minimum dust/material build-up
The Difference is Clear
Downsides
• High risk locking mechanism failure
• Complex mesh panel fabrication / bending
• Welding required
• Fabricated replacement parts
Features
• Mesh locking tab mechanism
• Custom sizes available
• No welding required
• Limited risk of locking mechanism failure
• Stocked replacement components
Case Study
Traditional Cup Style Guarding
Sentry Guarding System
Once again, our recent work onsite confirmed the advantages of the Sentry Guarding System. The Sentry Guarding System had lower implementation time than expected as well as being 31% cheaper in comparison with the Traditional Cup Style Guarding.
Safer + Cost effective + Time effective = Sentry Guarding System
