Zone Protection During Automated Handling of Plastic Parts Thanks to Safety Light Curtains with Hand Protection
When manufacturing trunk liners for the automotive industry, hazardous areas must be secured with fully automated robot cells to protect people and machines. Safety light curtains are mounted vertically and horizontally at the removal points for zone protection so that it is not possible to intervene or even enter the system. The curtains are designed so that reaching in with a hand leads to an immediate machine standstill. Switching signals can be transmitted quickly to higher-level systems thanks to the built-in IO-Link interface.
