Light Barriers
Safety light barriers are ideal in a robot installation for protection of the entrance areas. They are available in various configurations and can easily be combined with floor, wall, and fence mounting. This ensures easy accessibility and protects personnel. The choice for use of safety light-barriers depends on the individual installation layout and factory premises.
Fences
Safety fences are ideal in a robot installation for permanent protection. A fence can be positioned close to the robot and thereby reduce the footprint of the overall robot layout. Fences are available in various configurations and can easily be combined with floor, wall, and fence mounting.
The choice for use of a safety fence depends on the individual installation layout and factory premises.
Scanners
Safety scanners can be used in setups where it is desired to let the robot slow down its movements as an operator comes close to the cell – eventually stop. The choice for using safety scanners very much depends on the individual installation layout and factory premises.
Access Panel and Emergency-stop
Each robot installation will have an access panel allowing a ‘planned’ operator entrance to the running robot cell as well as re-engaging operation after leaving the cell. The access panel also include emergency-stop function.
