Innovative Company Provides Custom Machine Safety

Innovation began nine years ago within the walls of PowerSafe Automation, a safety company provid­ing customized machine safety and automation solutions across the coun­try.

PowerSafe Automation was founded in 2016 by Shawn and Tracy Man­tel. With over 30 years of experience in the T-slot aluminum extrusion safe­ty industry, Shawn recog­nized a need in the market not only for safety prod­ucts but also for installa­tion services. What started as small projects in their living room quickly grew, leading to the purchase of a building in Wolcottville in the fall of 2016, where the business is still located today.

PowerSafe Automation reflects the company’s dual focus on machine safety and electrical tie-ins, help­ing factories and industrial operations maintain com­pliance, efficiency, and— most importantly—safety. The company specializes in custom-designed machine safety guarding made from aluminum T-slot framing systems, as well as electrical safety com­ponents that directly inte­grate into their customers’ machines. The purpose of their products is to reduce risks and enhance safety in complex machine envi­ronments. They often col­laborate closely with en­gineering teams to ensure their solutions meet strict OSHA, ANSI, and other industry safety standards. Each project is tailored to the specific needs of a fa­cility, encompassing con­sultation, design, fabrica­tion, installation, training, and more.

Starting in 2016 with just a few part-time employ­ees, PowerSafe grew to 11 employees by 2022, and currently operates with a team of 22. They continue their growth strategy by employing team members in multiple states to better serve their customers. Ad­ditionally, they are part­nering with risk assess­ment companies, robotics, and AI-driven solutions to enhance their competitive edge in the market.

PowerSafe Automation services clients from coast to coast, and although much of their work takes place outside of LaGrange County, their home base remains in Indiana. Pow­erSafe Automation is proud to be a part of the LaGrange County manu­facturing industry.
