About INSIGHT KB
INSIGHT KB is a manufacturer of accessories for CNC machine tools based in Stegen, Baden-Württemberg. The core product is the V 4.0 clear-view protective screen: a protective film with an adhesive layer mounted on machine guard windows which, thanks to a special coating, creates a beading-off effect for splashing emulsion, thereby improving visibility into the machine interior during machining operations. The film is available in widths of 200, 300 and 400 mm as well as custom sizes and custom shapes, can also be applied to curved panes, and has an installation height of 0.3 mm; no drying time is required after installation, so production can resume immediately. The company also offers the film as a protective screen for LED machine lights as well as a height-adjustable tap valve with automatic shut-off for filling with water-miscible coolants. The product is Made in Germany and is continuously developed further.

History
As an industrial mechanic (precision mechanics), Stephan Ketterer recognized the problem of visibility into the machine interior being impaired by emulsion; together with Daniel Braitsch he developed the clear-view protective screen and brought it to market.
Market launch of the clear-view protective screen V 4.0 with a revised coating on a new base material for a longer service life and clearer visibility.
