Making it safe; ISB MX4200 Safety Light Curtains – The ultimate solution designed for safeguarding power presses now has a new Quick Guide for easier operator configuration.
ISB MX4200 Series Safety Light Curtains are compact and ruggedly housed in aluminum extrusion to withstand the hazardous conditions found around a metal stamping press. They contain all the features that are often required to properly safeguard a power press. Beam blank out function for programming small openings to allow for scrap chutes and conveyors to penetrate through the safety light without creating a shutdown are standard. Air and lubricant lines as well as coil stock can penetrate through the light curtain without shutting down the press by utilizing floating beam functions that are also included. Light curtain muting function to eject parts in the upstroke through the light curtain can be activated. These are just a few of the features that can be configured by using our plug-in portable teach tool. By just following a few simple steps at the press, configuration or parameterization of the ISB MX safety lights is easy, without requiring the use of a laptop or downloading of special software. Once programmed, the teach tool can be unplugged and put in a secure location until the next time a change is needed.
ISB recently added two new operator “Quick Guides” to its web site for the purpose of providing a step-by-step pictorial guide for configuring beam blank outs as well as parameterizing a variety of other light curtain functions.
