A brief description and application of safety gratings

Time:2022-10-10 Views:



Safety grating is also known as photoelectric safety protection device (also known as safety protector, punch protector, infrared safety protection device, etc.), generally speaking, safety grating exists in pairs, divided into transmitter and receiver.


Safety grating is a kind of photoelectric equipment to avoid people from approaching mobile machinery, which can avoid casualties. Such mobile machinery includes punch, winding machine, palletizing machine, elevator, etc. Safety grating can be used to replace the traditional mechanical barrier or other mechanical protection, and can also increase the maintainability of equipment. With safety grating, it can also increase the operation and efficiency of mechanical equipment (like some semi-automatic equipment).

presence detection devices. Other common presence detection devices are pressure-sensitive safety pads and laser scanners (remote control vehicles commonly used in industrial applications). Most of the main applications of industrial safety relays are in workstations with robots.


The safety grating consists of a combination of a transmitter and a receiving device. The transmitter transmits a set of infrared beams. The receiving device includes a number of light sensors. If the object is between the transmitter and the receiving device, the receiving device cannot receive the complete signal, and will send a stop signal to the monitoring device.


The beam sent by the safety raster transmitter is sequential and sends out at a specific frequency. The DETECTOR CAN ONLY RECEIVE A SPECIFIC PULSE AT a SPECIFIC FREQUENCY FROM THE TRANSMITTER, SO IT CAN AVOID BEING AFFECTED BY OTHER INFRARED LIGHT SOURCES AND IMPROVE ITS APPLICABILITY IN SECURITY SYSTEMS.


Generally, the safety grating will be connected to a safety relay. If an object is detected, it will automatically remove the power source that causes the hazard. The SAFETY RELAYS CAN ALSO TEMPORARILY SUSPEND THE FUNCTION OF THE SAFETY GRATING, ALLOWING OBJECTS TO PASS THROUGH THE SAFETY GRATING WITHOUT GENERATING a PROTECTION SIGNAL, which is applicable IN some SEMI-AUTOMATED PROGRAMS.


In modern factories, work together, human and machine on some potentially dangerous machinery and equipment, such as punching machines, shearing equipment, metal cutting equipment, automated assembly line, automated welding lines, mechanical transmission handling equipment, hazardous area (toxic, high-pressure, high temperature, etc.), easy to cause personal injury workers. Safety grating is a kind of advanced technology to protect the workers around all kinds of dangerous machinery and equipment. Compared to traditional protective measures such as mechanical fences, sliding doors, and pull-back restrictions, safety grATINGS PROVIDE MORE FREEDOM, FLEXIBILITY, and reduce operator fatigue. By REASONABLY reducing the need for physical protection, SAFETY GRatings simplify routine tasks such as equipment installation, maintenance, and repair.
