i-BOR is an emergency stop assistant that can save lives. It stops rollers, presses, shredders immediately: automatically and without contact. Then, when people can no longer do it themselves.
The emergency stop assistant that can save lives: i-BOR 22
What to do if there is a risk to life and limb when working with machines and systems? Press the emergency stop button to bring machines and systems to a standstill. But what if the people affected are unable to press the emergency stop button themselves? i-BOR22 is a personal protection system that protects when people cannot protect themselves – we call this life-saving system “Emergency Stop Assistant”. This can be compared with the intelligent systems in modern passenger cars. There, a wide variety of driver and safety assistants help ensure that nothing bad happens in an emergency. These assistants are like the 6th sense that kicks in when we’re in danger and our other five senses can’t help us anymore. The same applies to i-BOR 22. Think of i-BOR 22 as an emergency stop assistant that can save lives.

Five components
RFID-Technology
RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technology was developed for the automatic and contactless identification and localisation of objects and living beings using radio waves. In i-BOR 22, the RFID system consists of an active personal transponder (P-TAG) with a personal ID code and a reader for reading the ID code. A logic device is coupled to the reader, which initiates an action if necessary.
Personal transponder (P-TAG)
The i-BOR 22 personal transponders (P-TAG) are battery-supported “active RFID transponders” that are provided with individual codes and transmit and receive on two different frequencies. Possible faults are immediately displayed in the logic module (ALM). The system automatically logs all incidents and is almost maintenance-free.
Activation module (ATM)
ATM activation modules are mounted on the supply systems in front of the source of danger – and create a protective space. If a person with a P-TAG enters the protective field, the system ist stopped immediately. At the same time, visual, and acoustic signals are activated.
Logic module (ALM)
The logic module (ALM) is the central monitoring unit and is integrated into the emergency stop circuit of the system. It regulates and logs all functions of the security system. One ALM logic module can monitor up to 5 feed systems.
Authorisation module (AUM)
The authorisation module (AUM) prevents that unauthorised persons can operate the system. Only persons whose P-TAG has been specially authorised may start the system. The authorisation module (AUM) also allows the system to be switched off automatically if the authorised person is outside the radius of the logic module (ALM) for an extended period of time.
Three practical ways to protect your employees
On the wrist: like a clock
Practical and accustomed as a wristwatch. Thanks to the resistant wristband with Velcro fastener, the “watch” can be perfectly adapted to every forearm and wrist. This way, the P-TAG is not disturbing at work.
On the shoe: integrated into the ELTEN safety shoe
Double safety thanks to the ELTEN safety shoe. Its hard cap protects the toes from heavy objects and at the same time the wearer thanks to the practical fastening device for the P-TAG. This is attached to the outside of the ankle protector.
As a pendant: to be worn on a safety chain or on a carabiner
The P-TAG can also be worn around the neck like a necklace. We have developed a special safety strap that has strangulation protection and opens if the strap gets caught. Or you can wear the P-TAG as a practical pendant on a carabiner.
We would be happy to advise you!
i-BOR 22 – the leading personal security system
Machines and systems are there to make work easier – especially in the age of Industry 4.0. For BOREMA, the focus is on optimising the interaction between man and machine. Occupational safety is of paramount importance. Personal protection systems protect people from accidents at work that can, in the worst case, end in death. These accidents must be prevented at all costs.
Since 2012, we have specialised in the development of personal security systems. i-BOR 22 is already the 3rd generation and it represents a further milestone in non-contact personal protection systems. i-BOR 22 is the world’s first Advanced Personal Security System. APSS in short. i-BOR 22 is innovative, intelligent, contact-free and fast. And intervenes when people can no longer do it themselves.
