Manual Load Weld Cell
A variety of semi-automated operations which involve the manual feeding and/or removal of parts exist within the automotive manufacturing process.
In many cases such as this robotic weld cell, operators must be protected from hazards that are created by the automation such as pinch points from clamps and feed table movement.
The solution requires a safeguarding method which can detect the presence of a hand reaching into the station as well as protect from a cycle start if personnel are inside the cell.
YOUR BENEFITS
- Proven technology for harsh welding environments, ensures reliability and reduced maintenance costs.
- On-board alignment and diagnostic aids, for easy installation and maintenance.
- Cascadable, to reduce installation costs.
Additionally, the EZ-SCREEN safety light screen has outstanding on-board alignment and diagnostic aids, does not require an external device for programming and can be enhanced with the addition of Banner’s EZ-LIGHT lighted curtain for remote status indication.
