U-TECH PRESS
The U-TECH PRESS personal protection system is specifically designed for use with conveyor belts and presses. It triggers an automatic shutdown of the system as soon as an employee enters a pre-defined danger zone.

U-TECH ROLL
If an employee equipped with suitable U-TECH transponders on both wrists enters the protection field above the roller gap, the machine is stopped before the employee is harmed.

U-TECH SHRED
If the employee equipped with the PSM transponder leans too far into the funnel, the wood chipper stops automatically. This prevents injuries to the fingers, hands, or arms by the cutting tools.

U-TECH EXTRA
U-TECH supports companies in all branches of industry in adapting and developing the U-TECH system to local conditions, whether in sawmills, concrete plants or even the humid environments of the malting industry.

Recycling Industry
Recycling companies segregate materials by type and then press them into bales. A workplace with a high safety risk for employees.

Chemical Industry
Mixing mills are used to blend various substances together and create a homogeneous mass. Laboratory mills are used to mix and test smaller quantities of materials.

Forestry
The large funnels of the wood chippers are filled by landscaping professionals with green waste from bushes, shrubs, and trees.

Cutting Machines
Most cutting machines are equipped with sharp blades or knives capable of cutting through the material being processed.

Vision Zero

“Vision Zero is the vision of a world without accidents at work and work-related illnesses. The highest priority is the prevention of fatal and serious occupational accidents and diseases. The aim of Zero Vision is a comprehensive culture of prevention,” according to German trade associations.

International occupational safety and health experts, politicians and scientists regularly discuss ways to ensure the safety and wellbeing of employees. More and more companies are joining Vision Zero worldwide (http://visionzero.global/). In Germany, the German Social Accident Insurance (DGUV) registered only 430 fatal accidents at work. China, the world’s second-largest economy, in contrast had a total of 38,000 fatal accidents in 2017.

“A world without fatal accidents at work – Vision Zero – is feasible and not an unrealistic idea,” says Dr. Joachim Breuer, CEO of the German Social Accident Insurance (DGUV).

With the certified personal protection system, companies can take a big step forward in the pursuit of achieving the Vision Zero goal. Confusingly complex industrial systems can be switched off by any employee who is equipped with a transponder at any time and from anywhere. Training of installation personnel, on-site training of employees and commissioning inspections and records are part of the standard scope of our offer in addition to certified safety equipment.
