OMRON introduces safety grating with position detection temporary failure function
Omron has introduced a new safety grating "F35J-A Ver.2" with temporary muting. The so-called temporary failure function means that the grating is temporarily disabled when the workpiece and the stage pass through the detection zone. The new product is also equipped with: (1) temporary detection of position detection; (2) partial failure function. The price is between 52,000 and 560,000 yen (excluding tax).
The function of item (1) means: using the limit switch and sensor to detect whether the machine tool and the robot with risk factors “have stopped running, or are in a safe position?â€, “Is it in a dangerous position during processing and moving?â€, The grating is temporarily disabled when it is in a safe position. In the past, it was common to activate or stop the temporary failure function by detecting the workpiece or the human body. Therefore, in the case where the operator does not start machining after the workpiece is mounted on the device, it is impossible to confirm whether the detection area of ​​the grating has been blocked by the operator when the workpiece is mounted on the device. Or is there any human error in the process? With the new features, gratings can be used even for equipment that requires the operator to load the workpiece.
The function of item (2) means that only part of the optical axis will fail when the temporary failure function is active, and the optical axis that has NO relationship with the workpiece passing is set to be valid in the process. It is therefore possible to detect the body that suddenly enters when the workpiece passes.
In addition to this, there is a function to distinguish raster detection into "machine stop area" and "warning area". For example, if the grating is horizontally configured, when the operator approaches the dangerous position, the alarm is first issued by the alarm, and if the danger is further approached, the machine will be turned off. Prevents temporary malfunctions caused by grating motion.
In addition, an optical axis that is permanently in a light-shielded state is set to be inactive, and a function to turn its output into a closed state after a plurality of optical axes are blocked. When some machine tools are located in the safety grating detection area, some of the optical axes will be permanently blocked. Therefore, the device will not start when the safety output is off. This function can solve this problem.
At the same time, the software "F39-GWUM" used in the F35J and the portable control device "F39-MC21" were introduced. The former uses a dedicated interface cable to connect the computer to the raster, allowing for function selection and parameter setting, as well as confirming the status. It is capable of displaying the received light, whether there is external scattered light that causes the grating to malfunction, and a detailed error record. The latter is mainly for various settings for the use of new features, as well as for status confirmation. It is mainly used in workshops where computers cannot be configured, and in situations where simple setup is required.
