Safety engineering for people and machines
Safety technology means reliable protection for people and machines. This becomes increasingly important as the level of automation rises. We also have the right solution for precise measuring and switching.
The challenge
Safety for people and machines
In automatic production facilities, the safety of employees and the protection of machines are of crucial importance. Risks such as external objects on conveyor belts or unwanted intrusion into the operating area pose challenges that can lead to operational disruptions and safety breaches.
The Solution
Sophisticated safety technology and expert advice
The solution presented includes the use of light curtains, safety laser scanners and safety door handles:
- Light curtains: These automatically stop the conveyor belt as soon as a foreign object is detected to prevent damage to the machine or injury to persons.
- Safety laser scanners: When a person approaches, the machine is stopped immediately, ensuring a high level of safety for employees.
- Safety door handles: Access to the production facility is controlled by only allowing the door to be opened when the facility is not in operation.
