Stroke length adjustment hood

The hood fills two functions. First, to protect the operator from harm caused by the adjustment tool and second to constitute a prolapse protection on presses with the eccentric axle in a forward-backward direction.

On presses with this axle direction, an axle rupture can implicate severe risks for the operator if the shaft would hit him or her on the head. The hood catches the shaft and protects the operator from harm. When adjusting the stroke length or moving the press by hand the hood protects the operator by disconnecting the engine when the hood is opened.

An openable hood should is always to be electrically interlocked and wired with a safe setting in the control cabinet of the press.
