 Application:
A person often needs to load and unload product from a machine or from other
potentially hazardous areas.
Problem:
The machine must stop so that a person can safely reach into the area to load and
unload the product. The machine then has to be restarted after the product has been
changed and the area is made safe.

Solution:
Smartscan offers a wide range of straight Light Curtains with automatic, restart or
manual modes. Our Light Curtains provide protection for personnel by not allowing the
machines to run, or a robotic to enter an area, unless it is safe.
When mounted vertically they provide "Point of Operation" guarding while
allowing safe and immediate access for necessary manual operations.
When mounted horizontally they can replace pressure sensitive mats, which have a
shorter useful life. |
