Hazardous point protection on presses

The deTec4 safety light curtain (host/guest), for example, provides hazardous point protection on both sides of a press. The absence of blind zones reduces the space requirement when mounting senders and receivers. The cascade arrangement reduces the need for connection cables and saves costs. Configuration is automated and does not involve any software, and standardized M12 connectivity is used, all of which keeps installation work to a minimum. Several LEDs support device commissioning and diagnostics and improve usability. Another user-friendly solution involves just one deTec4 Core safety light curtain that is mounted at an angle. No blind zones and a 14 mm resolution ensure safe detection right down to the ground. Both safety sensors are connected using the compact Flexi Soft safety controller.
