Welcome to Beakbane
Leaders in machinery protection
Beakbane Ltd is one of the world's leading manufacturers and distributors of machinery protection systems, with over 50 years' experience of keeping equipment safe, productive and reliable in hostile environments.
If you have a product that needs protecting - from debris, metal chips, dust, stone chips, radioactive particles, or inquisitive fingers - Beakbane can help.
We can draw on our experience, and wide product portfolio, to find the right answer for your specific requirements.
If a standard cover or bellow won't do the job, our in-house design, manufacturing and testing resources mean we can develop a bespoke product that will.
Our broad range of protection technologies can offer cover applications right across the manufacturing spectrum. These include:
- Telescopic slideway covers for metalworking machine tools.
- Concertina covers for linear drives, woodworking equipment, lasers and waterjet cutting machines.
- Flexible bellows in a wide range of polymers, fabrics and rubber for applications ranging from medical equipment, food manufacture and anti-terrorist devices to the nuclear industry, materials handling and public transport.
- Flexible connectors for industries such as heating ventilation and air conditioning.
- Composite guards for the rail industry.
- Cable & hose carriers to protect and guide cables, hoses, wires and hydraulic lines in motion.
In fact, there is hardly any part of the industrial world where we haven't helped a customer solve their equipment protection problems.
Let's talk about how we could solve your problems.
