Applications
Safety precautions
Your request:
A non-contact safety device should secure a hazard point on your machine or system, while keeping the distance between the safety device and the hazard point as small as possible.
Our solution:
With our safety light curtains ELC 100 and their resolution of 17 and 30 mm, we offer you a secure finger and hand detection that can be implemented with small safety distances between the safety sensor and the hazard point.
)
Access control with short security distances
Your request:
You are looking for optoelectronic safety sensors that reliably secure access to hazardous areas on your machines and systems, and can also be installed close to the hazardous area to save space.
Our solution:
Our safety light curtains ELC 100 reliably secure the access points of your machines and systems with protection field lengths of up to 1,500 mm. With a resolution of 17 and 30 mm for finger and hand detection, they are ideal for your compact system design.
)
Access control on conveyor lines with Smart Process Gating
Your request:
Access of persons to your hazardous areas on conveyor routes should be prevented with access control. However, the passage of the conveyed material should still be possible.
Our Solution:
Smart Process Gating
The Smart Process Gating included in our light curtain MLC 530 SPG bridges the safety sensor in connection with a control signal from the PLC. This eliminates the need for additional muting sensors and allows your system to be designed in a particularly space-saving manner.
