ATS Machine Safety Solutions - Ram Mount Milling Machine Safety Guard (MG-3)The MG-3 is ATS Machine Safety Solutions' ram-mount milling machine chip guard for Bridgeport Series I and most comparable knee mills. It mounts to the ram rather than the head, leaving the quill, drawbar, and head completely unobstructed. The articulating arm and 360-degree adjustable handles allow precise shield positioning for any operation, and the bolt-on design requires no drilling into the machine.SpecificationsMount type: Ram mountPrimary compatibility: Bridgeport Series I and most knee millsShield: 1/4 inch thick polycarbonate (Lexan), swings 180 degrees openStandard shield size: 9 inchesFrame: CNC billet aluminum and industrial T-slot extrusionArm: Steel, articulating, 360-degree orientation, locks in placeFinish: Safety orange powder coatInterlock: Standard model has no interlock.

• Shields operators from chips and coolant while keeping quill, drawbar, and head accessible: Ram-mount leaves the entire head area open for quill operations. Addresses OSHA 1910.212 for milling machines. Fits Bridgeport and most knee mills.
• Articulating arm locks in any position so you set it once and work: Heavy-duty steel handles orient 360 degrees and hold position under continuous milling. Front arm swings 180 degrees open for setup and part changes.
• 6061 billet aluminum frame with PPG OSHA Safety Orange powder coat: T-slot extrusion handles coolant-heavy production environments without corroding. T-slot accepts work lights and coolant nozzle accessories.
• Ready to install on most Bridgeport and compatible ram profiles: ATS provides hardware for common ram geometries. Contact ATS with your machine make and model if non-standard. For head-mount installation, see the MG-2 instead.
• Backed by a 1-year warranty, and only the Lexan shield ever needs replacing: The 6061 aluminum frame outlasts the mill and is a permanent fixture. Replacement Lexan shields stocked at ATS. Interlocked version MG-3-SK1 also available.
