Have you ever wondered why radar technology surpasses traditional optical sensors?
The latter have obvious limits linked to the visual space, while the Inxpect virtual safety barriers are able to identify the human presence within the entire machine range of action. The use of this technology is slowly shifting from military and aeronautical applications to more industrial use.
The function of these motion sensors within a company is to make work safer and to reduce the space occupied by security systems in the workspaces. Let’s think to the number of containment systems that we can avoid or the greater security we can obtain thanks to the ability of Inxpect radar sensors to detect humans even in the harshest industrial envronment: dust, smoke, debris, water.
Another important point of the Inxpect sensors’ features is the depth of the warning and danger areas together with the ability to provide pre-alarms in order to avoid the sudden stop of the machinery.
This fast, high security mechanism allows efficient use of motion sensors within the operational area of collaborative robots. These cobots tend to move very fast, moving heavy loads. That is why this consideration should not be underestimated!
Thanks to the ability to detect human micro-movements even in the presence of the latest generation of robots, these technology guarantees a safe working environment and allows these robots to work in a non-isolated manner compared to the other operational areas of industrial production.
Other features:
- The system detects which part of the danger area has been entered: different actions can be configured depending on the accessed zone
- A perfect alignment between sensors is not required
- Configuration can be made quickly and easily through the provided PC application
- The safety barrier are economical and SIL2
