Machine Roof Covers

Contain Dust & Particles, Reduce Noise

Machine roof covers consist of large, self-supporting bellows equipped to glide on a rail system. Roof covers were first developed for large CNC gantry machines but have been adapted to other applications requiring a movable, low-friction cover. The bellows folds are constructed from translucent, high-strength material and attached to lightweight support beams with low-friction guide blocks and precision bearings.

The Purpose of Machine Roof Covers:

Do your production processes generate dust or small particles?

If your machine has excessive dust or noise from machining of carbon fiber, wood & other materials, Dynatect can produce a large-scale machine roof cover bellows, designed to glide smoothly on existing rails, helps to reduce noise and traps dust.

Key Features:

  • Capable of over 1G acceleration; 60 meter/minute velocity
  • Capable of over 10:1 extended-to-retracted length ratio
  • Translucent covers protect environment from dust and provide noise attenuation
  • Large self-supporting span with minimal deflection up to 9.144 m (30 ft)
  • Configurable to almost any rail or way system
  • Individually replaceable folding section
  • Choice of standard or inverted fold direction

Roof Cover Design:

  • Material –  translucent bellows using polyurethane TPE with high-strength monofilament polyester
  • Support structure – lightweight aluminum with low-friction plastic guide blocks and precision bearing rollers to minimize energy consumption
  • Cover Construction – variable fold depth and folding direction (standard or inverted) provides necessary clearances
  • Mounting– optional Dynatect-supplied mounting rails
