Sponmech 3D CAD design, manufacture and fit our bespoke and standard machinery guarding systems in manufacturing factories all over the UK and sometimes abroad.
Machine guarding in manufacturing is a critical aspect of workplace safety aimed at protecting workers from injuries caused by moving parts, flying debris, sparks, or accidental contact with dangerous machine components.
Sponmech have worked on some of the most complex machine and manufacturing processes, and we’ve always been able to provide a solution that is safe, compliant and operator friendly.
When assessing your machinery and manufacturing process, we’ll always ask to see the machine running so that we can better understand your needs for a machine guard that does what you need whilst maintaining strict safety standards.
Manufacturing companies have a legal and moral obligation to ensure that their machines and processes are safe and compliant for their operators to use. UK businesses including manufacturing sites should all have machines with risk assessments and compliant machine guarding in place.
If in doubt, Sponmech can provide PUWER 98 inspections and reports for companies who are unsure how safety-compliant their machine and processes are. Our NEBOSH certified engineers travel UK-wide at cost to survey your machinery.
With 40+ years of machine safety experience, Sponmech is a trusted UK manufacturer of machinery guarding systems for nearly all manufacturing processes.
Our engineers are NEBOSH certified and our hands on industry experience sets us apart from other guarding companies because there is literally no machine that we haven’t guarded before!
For your machinery to be PUWER 98 compliant, we need to see copies of your PUWER 98 survey, or we can do this for you at cost. All machinery guarding designed and manufactured by Sponmech come with certificates of conformity, are fully HSE compliant and where the application requires it, will also be CE marked.
Our machine guarding systems comply with the following standards:
2006/42/EC
BS EN ISO 14120:2015
BS EN ISO 12100:2003+A1:2009
The Provision and use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998 (P.U.W.E.R 98)*
*Subject to provision of a suitable PUWER 98 Risk Assessment
All of our engineers are accredited, safety trained and all carry national safety passports.
Sponmech can 3D CAD design any bespoke machinery guarding system.
We offer perimeter safety fencing systems, noise reducing acoustic enclosures and we also offer ‘off the shelf’ standard guards to suit most tool room machines.
We supply:
CNC milling machine guards
Metal working machine guards
Press guarding systems
Bending machine guards
Shearing machine guards
Conveyor safety fencing and guards
We will ensure that your guarding is compliant with all relevant British standards for machinery guarding. We will also always endeavour to ensure that your new guarding system does not hinder production or manufacture.
Sponmech can also arrange the electrical integration of your machinery guarding. To quote for this, we ask you to fill in one of our questionnaires. Please get in touch to find out more.
