A movable guard for safeguarding a machine, comprising: a protective cover for covering a working area of the machine; a counterweight; a connecting element for connecting the protective cover to the counterweight; a deflection element, which is configured to deflect the connecting element in such a way that the protective cover and the counterweight are movable in mutually opposite directions; and a drive, which acts on the counterweight in order to drive the counterweight.

A safety power assist for a manual press is provided. In another aspect, a press includes a tool, a manual actuator, a switch and an automatically powered actuator. A further aspect of the present press employs a spring which must be compressed beyond a predetermined pinching force before a switch is activated, where switch activation causes an automatically powered actuator to advance a workpiece-contacting punch or tool.

A dynamic rollover zone detection system that is easily attached to mobile machinery and dynamically detects a rollover zone around the mobile machinery. The system detects humans and objects within the rollover zone using one or more pre-trained machine learning models in order to prevent accidents and potential collisions between machinery and people or objects in the rollover zone. If a human or obstacle is identified in the rollover zone, an alert or warning is provided and/or the mobile machinery is disabled.

A lockout device that can be used independently and/or through a connected system that provides information and warnings of conventional lockout tag, while also able to actively provide information to a user and any other individual or device through a network in the system. The lockout device is paired with a user and enables audible and/or visual warnings to ensure notice of the lockout device as well as warnings to the user through the network of possible tampering.

A press machine includes a machine body that is able to press a workpiece and a notifier that notifies an operator of the operation of the machine body or the state of the workpiece in advance using at least one of a sound and light selected in accordance with the operation of the machine body.

The invention relates to a method for the emergency shutdown of hand-guided tools having a drive, wherein the hand-guided tool is connected mechanically to at least one camera and the camera and/or the tool is/are provided with an evaluation unit having image processing software, in which the following steps are provided: activating the camera, monitoring a predefined danger area of the hand-guided tool by means of the camera, processing and evaluating the captured image data by means of the evaluation unit and the image processing software with regard to the presence of a human body part in the danger area, and generating a warning signal, slowing down the drive of the hand-guided tool and/or stopping the drive of the hand-guided tool if a human body part is present in the danger area.
