What are Safety Light Curtains?
Safety light curtains use infrared light beams to protect personnel and machinery from injury or damage. A transmitter sends infrared light to the receiver, which measures the frequency and timing of the infrared light. The machinery automatically stops if an object interrupts the pulses of infrared light.
The Importance of Safety Light Curtains Repair Services
Light curtains promote safety in industrial settings. Failure to properly maintain and service light curtains can lead to unsafe conditions for personnel and potentially damage machinery. Faults in the light curtain are detected by a self-checking circuitry system that shuts down the machine until the issue is resolved.
