Monitoring four protective fields simultaneously with the S3000 Safety Laser Scanner from SICK

Описание: The S3000 safety laser scanner in combination with the Flexi Soft safety controller, one safety device for neighboring machines. We call it Sim-4-Safety and it is the only safety concept to monitor 4 protective fields simultaneously with only one safety laser scanner.

A typical application is on neighboring tire curing presses in tire manufacturing shown in the video.

Two neighboring presses work independently. The far protective fields (field 2 and field 4) stop the loading arm movement protecting the worker from overlooking the loading arm coming down on him. The press itself continues work as normal.
The near fields stop the press movement, protecting the worker from getting caught in the press.

This is monitored for both presses independently, but simultaneously. Press 1 may stop, while Press 2 can continue, this ensures highest productivity for tire manufacturing. Formerly, both presses were stopped.
