Proximity Sensor

With the continuous improvement of societal awareness regarding safety, people are increasingly emphasizing measures to safeguard personal safety when operating machinery. In this trend, the introduction and widespread use of safety light curtains have significantly enhanced the level of protection, providing operators with a more reliable guarantee and effectively reducing the risk of accidental injuries. […]

Safety light curtains play a crucial role in various equipment such as hydraulic presses, robotic arms, and elevators, protecting personnel from injury. A safety light curtain sensor consists of two parts: an infrared transmitter and an infrared receiver. The transmitter emits multiple beams of light towards the receiver, forming an invisible light curtain. In today’s
