Machine And Personnel Safety
Customized Grating
Challenge: Guarding the perimeter of equipment with a pair of light curtains The point of operation of a machine is where the work is performed. Securing the point of operation is critical to protecting personnel from accidents or injuries and preventing damage to equipment.
In many point of operation applications, operators must work very close to hazards. In these applications, hard guards may not be practical because they reduce operator ergonomics and productivity. Customized steric safety light curtains protect the point of operation and can adapt to a variety of installation environments while allowing operators to interact more seamlessly with the machine.
Can Be Installed In Small Spaces
Challenge: Space Constraints
Solution: ON13 Safety Light Curtains
Near the point of operation, space is often limited. While safety light curtains are available in a wide range of protective heights, they can also be very compact and low-profile, allowing them to be used in even the tightest of spaces.
Protection Of Multiple Equipment Doors
Challenge: Detecting the opening and closing of multiple equipment doors simultaneously
Solution: RDS Non-Contact Safety Door Switches
Guard doors that isolate personnel from the hazardous movements of automated case packers must remain closed while the machines are running. Read on to learn how you can monitor multiple guard doors with the RDS Series safety switches, ensure the highest level of safety, and easily identify and resolve issues.
Ensure Safety In The Work Area
Challenge: Covering a large area with only one pair of light curtains
Solution: ONG safety light curtains with reflectors
To protect the perimeter of the equipment, two independent reflectors are set up to reflect the sensing field from the transmitter to the perimeter corners and then to the receiver. Using reflectors is an economical way to fully utilize the range of the ONG series safety light curtains, protecting multiple sides of an area with a pair of transmitter/receivers, thereby increasing the detection surface of the safety light curtain.
Harsh Environment Use
Challenge: Harsh Environments
Solution: ONL Series Light Curtains
Industrial environments can be tough on safety equipment. When selecting industrial safety equipment, consider the surrounding environment to ensure the equipment’s ruggedness meets your application requirements. For example, features such as heavy-duty aluminum housings and recessed lenses protect safety light curtains from impact damage.
Check The Arrival Of Goods
Challenge: Packages enter palletizer area while hazardous machinery is still running
Solution: ONE Safety Light Barrier
Robotic arms are a great way to maintain efficiency in end-of-line packaging, but it requires maintaining a safe working environment. To keep employees safe, all entry points need to be guarded while the palletizer is running, and safety light barriers can be used to detect the arrival of goods.
Protecting Personnel From The Movement Of The Tube Bender
Challenge: Stop machine motion when a person is detected
Solution: ONL Series Safety Light Barriers
Use safety light barriers to protect hazardous areas, such as machine access points and work cell perimeters, to prevent injuries and machine damage. Light barriers use fewer beams and can detect a body or torso entering the area.
