It keeps your operators safe
Quite simply, the ICO 3000 was built with safety in mind. Its innovative mechanism guarantees that the skinning/derinding machine is safe to use by cutting the power within milliseconds in the event that the operator’s glove meets the blade. That protects your staff from the immediate risk of sustaining a serious injury at work (especially since some accidents with skinning/derinding machines have the potential to result in life-changing injuries).
Staff in commercial and industrial sectors have always been at a disproportionately high risk of workplace injuries compared to those working in other industries. We recognise that here at Cutting Edge Services, which is why we designed the ICO 3000 to provide vital protection to the people who need it most.
Maintain high levels of efficiency and productivity
The ICO 3000 has also been designed with an ultrafast reset procedure, so in the event that the safety mechanism is triggered for whatever reason, your staff can begin using the machine again the moment they feel safe enough to do so. This essentially minimises the potential downtime that would otherwise be involved, allowing your team to maintain high levels of efficiency and productivity. (That is, of course, to say nothing of the downtime that would be involved in the event that one of your staff sustains an actual injury!)
Enjoy complete peace of mind
As well as physical protection for your staff, the effectiveness of the ICO 3000 also provides you with significant legal protection as a business. Accidents and injuries in the workplace cost the food manufacturing industry hundreds of thousands of pounds per year in injury claims, and cutting down on the risk of those accidents means that you’re also saving yourself from the (often expensive) legal ramifications of those claims.
Most important though, the ICO 3000 gives you peace of mind that your operators are able to do their jobs without fear of injury, ensuring a happy, healthy, and highly productive environment.
