Example 1: Operating point protection on drilling machines
The operator positions the part and takes
it back after machining.
The operator must be protected against
possible abrasions while working.
Solution:
SG4-B 14 mm safety light
curtain is especially suitable for this kind
of application, which requires the
installation of the device directly on the
machine.
Benefits:
The extremely reduced profile
guarantees installation flexibility adapting itself to the machine
dimensions.
The rotating fixing brackets, supplied as accessories, speed up and
facilitate mounting.
Example 2: Bending presses
The safety device must protect the operator from being squashed
between the top and bottom parts or the machined part during the fast
approach phase.
Solution:
If only one beam of the SG4-B 14 mm
safety light curtain is interrupted while the press is
moving down, the mobile tool bar will stop.
Benefits:
The safety light curtain can be used in
most bending operations thanks to its easy
installation and compact dimensions. As well as
offering excellent reliability, SG4-B 14 mm
ensures increased plant productivity as it reduces
the dead times necessary for machine accessing,
adjustment and maintenance.
