How to correctly select and install safety light curtains

Understand the characteristics of the workplace, the potential hazards and the areas to be protected. This will help determine the required performance and functionality of the safety light curtain.

The effect of safety light curtain resolution on performance

The resolution of a safety light curtain is the number of light beams per unit length or the density of light in the grating. The size of the resolution directly affects the sensitivity and detection accuracy of the grating, thus having an important impact on its performance.

How do safety light curtains prevent human injury?

Safety light curtains reduce the potential for accidents by preventing humans or objects from entering hazardous areas by detecting and monitoring objects in the area with a beam of light.

What are the types of photoelectric switches?

A photoelectric switch is a switch that utilizes the photoelectric effect. According to the different detection methods, photoelectric switches can be divided into four types, namely, the through-beam (opposite) type, the diffuse reflection type, the mirror-reflective type and the slot type.

Comparison of different types of safety light grating and their application scenarios

Safety light grating is a kind of sensor device used for the safety protection of mechanical equipment and are widely used in the field of industrial automation. According to different working principles and applicable scenes, safety light grating can be divided into a variety of types.

Can proximity switch sensors achieve long distance detection? 

In fact, proximity switch sensors usually have a detection distance of no more than 50mm, if you want to detect a distance of more than 10cm or a few meters, we recommend photoelectric sensors, proximity switches sensors are more suitable for close-distance detection. Of course there are some brands will launch remote detection of the proximity switch. But the limitations will also be relatively large.

Difference between safety light curtain and safety relay

Safety light curtain and safety relay are two common safety protection devices, they are used for the safety protection of machinery and equipment, but there are differences in application scenarios, functional characteristics and other aspects. The following is the analysis of the difference between them.

Safety light curtain common problems and repair methods

Safety light curtains are important safety devices in industrial environments, but they can also break down. Here are some common safety light curtain failures that may occur and how to repair them:

What are the specific applications of safety light curtains in industrial machinery?

A safety light curtain is a safety device that utilizes a light beam to detect the position of an object. It is widely used in industrial machinery, mainly to protect operators and equipment from injury. Safety light curtains can detect the presence of people or objects and cut off the power supply to the machine in time to avoid injuries. Here we look at the specific applications of safety light curtains on industrial machinery.

What is a standard safety light curtain?

Safety light curtain is a common photoelectric protection device, used to realize the safety protection of mechanical equipment. It detects whether the object enters the set protection area through th

How to maintain safety light curtains against dust and water when working in harsh environments?

Working in harsh environments, safety light curtains are also facing serious challenges, especially dustproof and waterproof maintenance is crucial.

Safety light curtain market and application

Safety light curtain is widely used in: assembly line, elevator, restricted area, dangerous area, paper cutting machinery, leather machinery, woodworking machinery, forging machine, punching and shearing machine, palletizing system
