Machine Guarding Fixed Guards
A permanent part of the machine Not dependent on any other part to
perform the function Usually made of sheet metal, screen,
bars or other material which will withstand the anticipated impact
Generally considered the preferred type of guard.
Simple and durable

Usually connected to a mechanism that will cut off the power automatically
Could use electrical, mechanical or hydraulic systems
Should rely on a manual reset system
