8 CHAPTER 1: BASIC NOTIONS
TRYTON 107/112
5. SAFETY DEVICES
The TRYTON 107/112 bar feed system has been designed with a focus on maximum safety during its
handling and complies with all EC requirements.
Safety covers and devices make access to the moving parts of the bar feed system impossible.
Safety switches keep the bar feed system from operating when these protections are open.
The design of the switches, as well as their insertion into the bar feed system, makes it practically impossible
to bypass them.
By pressing the emergency stop button located on the remote control, the functions of the bar feed system
and the lathe are immediately stopped.
The LNS company, or its local representative, may not be held responsible for possible
accidents or property damage, whether caused directly or not, by any means whatsoever, if
certain safety devices have not been included.
5.1. Security analysis for the correct incorporation
Before considering assembling the machine, it is necessary to consider the following points:
• Consider security strategies that reduce risks to an acceptable level;
• Define the tasks required for applications to predict and assess the need of access and / or for the
approach;
• Identify sources of risks, including failures and failure modes associated with each task. Risks can
come from:
o machine in which the device TRYTON 107/112 is integrated;
o its association with other equipment,
o People’s interaction with the machine.
• Evaluate and assess the risks associated by using the machine TRYTON 107/112:
o programming risks
o operation risks
o risks of use
o maintenance risks
• Choose methods of protection :
o the use of protective devices
o the introduction of signals
o compliance with safe work procedures
