Safety light curtains are a type of sensor used in industrial and automated environments to protect workers and machinery. They are designed to detect the presence of objects (like a human body or hand) in a hazardous area and stop or prevent machine operation if necessary, helping to avoid accidents or injuries. Here’s how they work and why they’re important: Functionality: Infrared Light Beams: Safety light curtains consist of two components: an emitter and a receiver. The emitter sends a series of infrared light beams across a designated area, and the receiver detects whether these beams are interrupted. When an object (such as a person or body part) crosses the beams, it triggers a signal that activates a safety response. Safety Response: The machine or equipment connected to the safety light curtain is typically programmed to stop, slow down, or enter a safe state when an interruption is detected. This prevents accidents by ensuring workers don't enter dangerous areas while the machine is in operation. No Physical Contact: Unlike traditional safety devices like guards or fences, safety light curtains don’t require physical barriers. This allows for greater flexibility in machine design and easier access to areas without compromising safety. Types: Type 2 Light Curtains: Provide basic safety for non-hazardous areas. Type 4 Light Curtains: Offer the highest level of safety and are often used in more hazardous environments or for more dangerous machines. Applications: Manufacturing: Protect workers from moving machinery, such as robotic arms or conveyor systems. Packaging Lines: Prevent accidental entry into hazardous areas of packaging machines. Automated Systems: Common in automated production lines, ensuring the safety of workers around automated machines and robots. Key Benefits: Prevent Injuries: Protects workers from being caught or harmed by moving parts of machines. Flexibility: Safety light curtains can be adapted to different types of machinery and layouts without the need for bulky physical barriers. Non-intrusive: They do not obstruct the workflow, allowing machines to continue operation smoothly, while still providing safety.

Safety photoelectric sensors are devices used to detect the presence or absence of objects, or to monitor the movement of objects, by using light. These sensors play a critical role in industrial safety systems, offering a non-contact way to detect potential hazards, protect workers, and ensure that machines operate safely. By using light (either infrared or visible) to detect objects or people, they help automate safety features and prevent accidents in various industrial environments.

The Enhanced Safety Laser Sentinel (SLS) from Datalogic is an innovation in workplace safety, able to operate in static (e.g. perimeter or access protection, robot cells) or dynamic (e.g. AGVs, autonomous mobile robots, forklifts) environments, ensuring the safety of staff and improving efficiency at the same time. The Laser Scanner Enhanced is designed to withstand the harshest of environments with its tough industrial housing. It has a 275° viewing angle, this, when placed on the corner of an area, gives complete protection of two sides of a machine or vehicle. Combining two of these can give you complete 360° protection of an area, up to 4 units can be connected and used for safety or warning functionality. Safe zones measure up to 5.5m and can let you know when an object greater than 70mm enters, warning zones extend to up to 40m.

OEM Automatic Ltd offers a comprehensive range of fixed focal length lenses designed market leading manufacturers such as Basler for industrial machine vision applications. Their selection includes C-mount lenses compatible with sensor sizes from 1/2" to 1", supporting resolutions up to 1 megapixel and pixel sizes down to 7 µm. The lenses feature manual focus and adjustable iris controls, with focal lengths ranging from 3.5 mm to 100 mm. Notable specifications include wide apertures (as low as f/1.4), minimal distortion, and compact, lightweight designs—some models weighing as little as 34 grams. These lenses are constructed with robust mechanical designs, ensuring durability and stability in industrial environments. These fixed focal length lenses are ideal for applications requiring consistent, high-quality imaging, such as factory automation, quality control, and robotics. Their precise optical performance and mechanical stability make them suitable for tasks like surface inspection, barcode reading, and component alignment. The availability of various focal lengths and sensor compatibilities allows for flexible integration into diverse machine vision systems. With features like adjustable focus and iris, these lenses provide the necessary control to optimise image capture under varying lighting conditions and working distances.

Optical filters for maximising contrast, improving colour, enhancing image quality and removing reflections. The OEM Automatic’s filter range includes Bandpass, Longpass, Shortpass, Multipass, Polarising, Chromatic and Neutral density in a range of sizes. (even custom ones)

3D Imaging for Industrial Applications Basler's Time-of-Flight camera provides precise 3D images in real-time, thanks to Sony's DepthSense™ sensor technology and integrated depth image processing. The camera operates on the time-of-flight principle at 850 nm or 940 nm wavelengths. With up to 30 frames per second, the Basler ToF Camera is ideal for applications where imaging system speed is crucial. Packages on a conveyor belt can be detected on-the-fly, and their volume can be measured to determine freight costs. In robotic gripping tasks, the system detects the position, size, and gripping position of objects in real-time, as the image acquisitions are precisely synchronised by the hardware trigger function. The processing of depth data is completed in the camera, reducing the computational and data load on the CPU, which is important for AGV applications.
