What Are Safety Light Curtains?

Safety light curtains create invisible infrared barriers around hazardous machinery. These systems detect when workers or objects enter danger zones and immediately stop equipment operation. Unlike physical guards, they allow material handling while protecting personnel.

How They Work

1.Transmitter emits parallel infrared beams

2.Receiver detects these beams continuously

3.The system triggers an emergency stop when any beam breaks

4.Response times typically range from 8-30ms

Key components work together to provide reliable protection without physical barriers.
