Lovegreen Risk Management, LLC, a machine safety solutions company, is pleased to announce that is now a reseller of Repar 2 electrically interlocked safety shields for drill presses, lathes, & mills. This partnership allows us to offer an even larger selection of machine safety products – assuring that your machines are properly guarded.

REPAR2 shields are available for drilling machines, metal lathes, milling machines and grinders. When the interlocked shield is lifted up or moved to the side, the micro switch opens and sends a stop signal to the machine control. The safety switches are mounted in an IP 67 enclosure which makes them difficult to defeat.

Many sizes and styles are available. The full REPAR2 catalog is available here. Email us or call us at 800-262-8284 for more information.
