Fire Resistant Bellow Cover: Integration, Spares and Care Questions

Start with the protected zone, its dimensions and the guide rail layout. The cover can be arranged for horizontal or vertical movement, and its size is customized. The required structure can be selected from the listed choices or developed around a drawing or a picture of the guide rail.

For a quotation, send the structure details and dimensions of the area to be protected. This gives the supplier the information needed to recommend a suitable arrangement and calculate the price.

The cover and frame can use stainless steel or carbon steel. The cover protects against swarf, flying chips and cooling lubricants, and it is fire proof, water and oil proof, and acid resistant. The metal construction can protect a rail or machine from laser exposure and hot flying chips, making it suitable for high-temperature and heavy-dust environments such as laser and fire-cutting machines.

The cover is also suitable for applications including CNC machines, laser machines, robotics, automation systems, testing and measuring systems, machine tools for nonmetals and production systems. Select the material and structure against the actual chips, fluids, heat and movement in the machine, then include those conditions with the drawing or rail picture.

The cover can bear high-speed movement and is designed for low-noise function. Rollers or sliders may be used to support smooth extension and movement. These parts can also help prolong the cover's service life and maintain low-noise sliding.

The correct spare part depends on the cover arrangement and the guide rail installation. During specification, provide the cover direction, protected-zone dimensions and rail image or drawing so the movement support can be considered with the main cover.

Check the following information at the machine:

• protected-zone dimensions;
• horizontal or vertical installation direction;
• guide rail drawing or a clear rail picture;
• expected swarf, chips, cooling lubricants, heat and dust;
• preferred cover and frame material, stainless steel or carbon steel;
• required structure and end connection details.

The cover is available in black, with a stated extension rate from 1:8 to 1:12. Send the dimensions, structure information and rail image together when requesting a quotation.
