Solenoid interlock
Smartscan
The key design element in Magsafe was to lock the door using magnetic force rather than by mechanical means and to remove the problems that plague existing gate locks due to liquid and dirt exposure in combination with the rigors of daily operation. This causes fatigue and leads to mechanical failure of the product. The ability to withstand harsh industrial environments such as water, dust and corrosive liquids Magsafe is the perfect solution for most guard locking applications.
In addition to this Smartscan has applied its safety light curtain technology background to the safety gate interlocking market by providing a system control unit which continuously monitors the on and off state of the magnets. This ensures the system detects when the gate is open and when it is closed. Only when the gate is closed and the magnetic locking force applied, will the control system allow machine operation.
