Lathe Guards With Electrical Interlocks

Silvaflame lathe guards are considered one of the best safeguarding solutions available because they are designed specifically to protect operators working with rotating components, swarf and moving tooling, without restricting normal machining operations.

Manufactured in the UK, Silvaflame lathe guards are built on decades of experience in industrial machine safety and are trusted across a wide range of engineering environments.

Each lathe guard is constructed using high quality materials, including tough, clear polycarbonate screens that provide excellent visibility of the chuck and workpiece while offering strong protection against flying swarf and coolant spray. The supporting arms and frames are engineered for strength and stability, ensuring the guard remains securely in position throughout operation.

Silvaflame offers a versatile range of lathe guards, including hinged, sliding and traverse-mounted designs, allowing them to be fitted to most centre lathes, CNC lathes and heavy-duty machines. This adaptability helps ensure the guard is used correctly and consistently by operators.

Where required, guards can be supplied with electrical interlocks and safety switches that prevent the lathe from running when the guard is open, supporting compliance with PUWER and workplace safety obligations.

The result is a reliable, long-term safeguarding solution that improves operator confidence, reduces risk and supports a safer, more productive workshop environment.
