Safety Bumpers
Safety Bumpers are used to protect crushing and shearing points. The areas of application are diverse:
Machines, driverless transport systems, hangar doors, and for all moving parts from which a hazard can emanate.
Safety contact buffers are safety devices on transport vehicles, AGVs, high-bay warehouses, free-moving systems and wherever larger deformation paths of the safety device are required.
The short response time of the bumper ensures the immediate control command “Stop” when approaching an obstacle. The ASB Safety Bumper consists of a foam core bonded to an aluminum support profile and covered with cross-linked polyurethane or NBR rubber for protection against damage or moisture.
IInside the bumper there is a safety contact strip which is actuated in the event of compression. This information is then processed by the evaluation electronics to immediately “stop” all movements. By selecting a suitable size of safety contact buffer, a safe stop is ensured even in inert systems, due to the low pressure load required for triggering.
Safety Bumpers are safety devices on transport vehicles, AGVs, high-bay warehouses, free-moving systems and wherever greater deformation travel of the safety device is required. The bumper’s short response time ensures an immediate control command stop when approaching an obstacle and, due to its soft foam core, a long braking and overtravel distance. In this way, people and materials can be optimally protected.
The ASB Safety Bumper is available in lengths up to 3000 mm. The cable outlets are located at each end of the bumper. Special designs on request!
