Automotive Production Line Safety Light curtain Solution

Typical Application of Safety Light Curtain in Automotive Production Line

 

The safety light curtain is a key equipment to ensure production safety at the automobile production line . It uses infrared beam detection mechanism to prevent personnel from accidentally touching or entering dangerous areas and is widely used in high-risk processes such as stamping, welding, and assembly.

The safety light curtain consists of a transmitting end (emitting infrared beam) and a receiving end (receiving beam), forming an infrared light curtain. When personnel or objects obstruct the light beam, the light curtain immediately outputs a signal, triggering equipment shutdown or alarm. 

The product adopts redundant circuits and multiple verifications to ensure fast response in case of beam interruption (response time is usually<20ms), avoiding wrong operation or missed output.


(1) Stamping workshop light curtain solution : 

Safety gratings are applied around the stamping machine workbench and mold replacement area to prevent operators from inserting their hands into the mold during the stamping process or accidentally touching the equipment start button during mold replacement.
