In the meat industry, precision in cutting is just as important as the safety of those operating the machinery. Band saws, essential for processing meat and bones, involve risks that make it essential to have advanced protection systems.
To meet this need, MAINCA has created the Sentinel BS-2800, an industrial band saw equipped with an innovative system capable of stopping the blade in just milliseconds. Thanks to its patented smart detection technology, it is possible to prevent cuts and accidents before they happen, while ensuring maximum operator protection and a continuous workflow.
Below, we detail the features of the Sentinel BS-2800 and the benefits it provides to operators and production in the meat industry.
What are the revolutionary features of the Sentinel BS-2800 band saw?
The Sentinel BS-2800 combines high-precision engineering with a unique intelligent safety system. Its main features include:
-
MAINCA Vision System: a true revolution in industrial safety. This system combines two key elements:
-
High-precision overhead camera that recognizes the Sentinel detectable glove using color detection, without physical contact.
-
Glove sensor on the table that identifies the presence of fingers even when they are hidden under the product.
When any of the sensors detect risk, the internal pneumatic brake is immediately activated and stops the blade in just 20 milliseconds.
This record time practically reduces the risk of injury to zero, positioning the Sentinel BS-2800 as one of the safest and most innovative band saws on the market.
-
AISI 304 stainless steel structure: maximum resistance to corrosion and durability in food environments, including 300 mm wheels.
-
High-efficiency internal pneumatic brake: stops the blade in milliseconds without damaging it, allowing immediate resumption of work.
-
Blade length 2720 mm, cutting height 360 mm and cutting width 280 mm: dimensions that allow working with large pieces.
-
Constant speed of 20 m/s: ensures uniform and precise cuts, optimizing productivity.
-
Touch control panel: configurable to adjust detection areas, record stops, and manage users, providing full control of the machine.
-
Minimal maintenance: withstands more than 3,000 stops without part replacement, reducing costs and downtime.
-
CE certification: complies with Directive 2006/42/EC and standard EN 12268:2014, ensuring quality and safety.
Complete Sentinel System: technology, safety and performance
The MAINCA Vision system is designed to offer maximum operator protection, but to take full advantage of its potential, it is essential to have the right components and accessories. Below, we present the essential and optional elements that complete the Sentinel experience:
