Assistance system for industrial workplaces
reduces the risk of accidents in high-risk areas
Wherever employees are involved in the operation of industrial machinery and plants, there is a risk of accidents, so particular attention must be paid to ensure safer working conditions in these areas.
The system automatically detects a person’s presence in a defined high-risk area around the machine and can actively intervene in the equipment’s control systems, preventing dangerous movements, and in the case of a stoppage, preventing its unwanted activation.
ELOshield can be used wherever optical protective devices (laser scanners, light curtains) and physical protective barrier systems (fencing, shields) are not effective.
Award winning solution
How it works
The system monitors dangerous situations in real time. As soon as a person enters the warning zone, a light and/or acoustic signal is activated on the machine and a vibration signal is activated on the personal tag.
If a person enters the protection zone (depending on individual settings), the system switches off dangerous movements or stops the machine completely. When the person leaves the warning zone, the machine's operating parameters return to their original settings.
If the protection zones are violated and the machine comes to a standstill, reset and restart procedures are required to restart the machine.
The benefits of ELOshield: are obvious:
- Compatible with all major forklift truck models
- Safety of personnel in dangerous areas
- Maximum flexibility
- Possibility to create any shape of zone
- Increased safety during machine service
- Up to 500 personal tags can be used
- Convenient application
- Internationally applicable

Radio-based detection system
Thanks to the applied transmission technology based on the broadband protocol RFID, the system is also set up to detect people through all kinds of obstacles, so there are no "dead zones". The system simultaneously detects all persons in the detection area.
The system is resistant to harsh weather conditions and is insensitive to dirt and intense light. Personal tags are powered by rechargeable batteries and charged by standard GSM chargers and are equipped with a button that can actively deactivate warning and alarm signals.

Substitutes LOTO (Lockout Tagout) procedures
ELOshield can successfully substitute LOTO (Lockout Tagout) procedures during maintenance and repairs.
The system detects all persons who are in the defined area on a continuous basis. A personal tag in a pocket or clipped on the waistband guarantees convenience when servicing. With ELOshield, each person is individually protected.

Wide range of applications
An alternative for optical protection devices and protective barrier systems
The ELOshield system can be used wherever optical protection devices (laser scanners, light curtains) and physical protective barrier systems (fencing, shields) are not effective.
As well as working with traditional equipment, this system is also an ideal solution for safeguarding personnel working on production lines with internal transportation systems (conveyors, elevators), for robotic systems (industrial robots and collaborative cobots) and in handling and storage areas.
Operators entering the cell feel more confident now. The system continuously signals the presence of operators inside the cell and does not allow the process to start even when the door is closed and locked
