Typical Applications

Sensing edges are typically used to protect personnel from injury or equipment from damage. In industrial settings, they can be used on mechanized door edges to detect obstructions or on scissor lifts to provide pinch protection. They are suitable for collision sensors on AGVs , impact detectors on moving platforms, and positioning switches on moving conveyors. In medical applications, such as scanners, they can protect the patient from the moving parts of the equipment.
