Sensing edges
Optical Sensing Edges (OSE, Cat.4)
Safety edges are used wherever moving edges pose a hazard to people. The hazardous areas are protected by hollow rubber profiles. As soon as a person or object touches them, the sensing profile is deformed, and the potentially hazardous movement stops.
The safety edges must meet a variety of requirements in these very different application areas. These requirements can be classified in three groups, as follows:
Safety
The safety requirements to be met by the safety edges are determined through a hazard analysis and risk assessment. The safety edges must also be approved by a certification agency.
Reliability
Non-operational safety facilities result in machine downtimes and have a major influence on the workflow. High availability of the system used is therefore essential. In addition, the safety edge must also be resistant to ambient influences, such as moisture, dirt, vibrations, and corrosive media.
Cost Efficiency
Customers benefit from the simple installation, short delivery times and simple logistics.
