A:
Safety light curtains are often used in the following areas that require personnel protection:
1. Hazardous areas of mechanical equipment
Such as the feed port or operation area of equipment with moving parts such as punching machines, shearing machines, injection molding machines, bending machines, etc.
2. Both sides of the conveyor belt of the automated production line
Prevent personnel from accidentally entering the dangerous area when the conveyor belt is running.
3. Robot operation area
Ensure the safety of personnel and robots when collaborating or maintaining.
4. Assembly and handling system boundaries
Restrict access to high-speed moving parts areas.
5. Lifting platform, automatic storage equipment entrance
Detect personnel entering high-risk spaces and perform interlocking control.
6. At the entrance of dangerous doors/channels
Used to prevent personnel from entering restricted areas without authorization.
The installation location should be determined based on the risk assessment results, combined with the equipment operation mode and personnel operating habits.
