    Visorguard-LED offers integrated strip lighting to provide 6000K natural white light with a 170-deg. beam angle. Auto-Diffuse lighting produces no LED light hot spots.

     

    The machine safety guard is water and coolant proof and installs in minutes on CNC mills, conventional mills, drill presses, and more. The adjustable Flexbar arm permits setting of the Visorguard shield at the correct height and angle for each setup, then locks rigidly into place. The special wing-shaped shield flips up to load a part and flips down for machining. A special spring-loaded shaft allows the shield to stay put with no spring back.

     

    The built-in Visorguard-LED lighting is powered through a choice of two available system options:

    1. A compact 12V Rechargeable Battery Pack with on/off switch provides at least 4 hours of lighting per charge. It can be easily attached to the side wing of the shield with included velcro strips. A 12V charger is also included.
    2. The system can be powered through a 12V direct wire wall transformer with an 8-ft cable and an on/off switch.

    Replacement Visorguard-LED shields and power kits are available for current Flexbar Visorguard users who can conveniently upgrade their current system to LED lighting.
