Automated Lift Guarding
Application:
To guard an area around a lift used to
raise and lower auto bodies.
Description:
A lift is used to raise and lower parts of an auto body between different
levels of the factory. The area around the lift is guarded with hard guard
fencing. A system is needed to guard the entrance and exit the auto body uses to
pass in and out of the area, and also to detect if a person is standing below
the lift.
The MINI-SCREEN is mounted horizontally just a few inches above the floor. This
provides an optical “safety mat” across the floor of the lift area.
The MICRO-SCREEN with muting is mounted across the opening to the lift area. The
QS18 pairs are mounted in an “X” pattern across the opening, and functions as
the muting devices for the MICRO-SCREEN. As the auto body passes out of the lift
area, it blocks the QS18 sensors first, which mutes the MICRO-SCREEN allowing
the auto body to pass out of the area without stopping transfer skid.

USCC1L2M controller.
MINI-SCREEN System –
MSE/R4824 with
MSDINT-1T2 controller
Two QS186E/QS18VN6R opposed-mode sensor pairs.
