Ergonomic manual workstations with safety technology

SCHMIDT ® workstations are supplied ready for purpose with certified safety technology and corresponding operating elements. Depending on customer requirements, workstations can be equipped with the following security concepts:

SCHMIDT® SmartGuard protective shield for TorquePress 520 and ServoPress 405 to 420
SCHMIDT® SmartGate protective housing with automatic doors
                                           light curtain
                                           two-hand safety

SCHMIDT ® SmartGate
Shorter process cycles and increased safety standards

SmartGate is a protective enclosure with automatic doors. The access to the process area is via two transparent, horizontally guided door elements. Key benefits of SmartGate over other safety concepts, such as light curtain or two-hand systems, are the significant increase in ergonomics and workflow efficiency through reduction of required safety margins and the excellent accessibility of the process space. SmartGate sets new standards in the field of safety by completely closing of the process area, completely eliminating unintentional third-party intervention or fragmentation. SmartGate is particularly suitable for processes with the risk of splintering due to protection against flying parts or spalling. When designing SmartGate, we ensured that all surfaces are as easy to clean as possible and that there are no areas where residues or particles can accumulate. High demands on purity and cleanliness, as they occur, for example, in applications in medical technology can therefore be easily met.

Characteristics:
- Protection of the working area from unintentional intervention
- Splinter protection from chipping of parts
- Visible working space
- Optimization of the safety distances to the complete danger area
- Consideration of quality assurance requirements (NIO behaviour)
- Cycle time and process optimization through programmable opening and closing speed (<2 s)
- Very high energy efficiency due to linear motor drive
- Type approved

 

SCHMIDT ® Safety Technology
Smart Safety Concept for Servo and Torque presses

The transparent protective housing entirely encloses the working area during the press process. It thus prevents the user and a third person from getting their hands into the danger area and efficiently protects against the particles or splinters that may be ejected. The distances to the working zone are minimized which considerably improves the ergonomics and the efficiency of the workstations. The high dynamics of the protective housing with numerical control and its variable positioning capability and traversing velocity optimize the process cycle. The smart construction prevents any trap points in the enclosure.

Characteristics:
- Protection of the working area from unintentional intervention
- Splinter protection from chipping of parts
- Visible working space
- Optimization of the safety distances to the complete danger area
- Consideration of quality assurance requirements (NIO consideration)
- Cycle time and process optimization through programmable opening and closing speed (<2 s) and the opening height
- Very high energy efficiency due to linear motor drive
- Type approved
- ESD version possible
