It is the nature of packing plants to exe\u00adcute haz\u00adardous move\u00adments that users need to be pro\u00adtected from. This is exac\u00ader\u00adbated by the cur\u00adrent trend toward single-product pack\u00adaging and indi\u00advid\u00adu\u00adal\u00adi\u00adsa\u00adtion. You no longer find cookies together in one package, but instead indi\u00advid\u00adu\u00adally pack\u00adaged. Pack\u00adaging that is growing increas\u00adingly more sophis\u00adti\u00adcated leads to the pack\u00adaging process having to become quicker and more effi\u00adcient. This means that the throughput is increased. And with the increased speed of the move\u00adments and the high degree of automa\u00adtion, the danger posed by the pack\u00adaging machines and plants also increases. The safety tech\u00adnology must also be adapted to these growing chal\u00adlenges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We sup\u00adport you across the entire pack\u00adaging process \u2013 from pri\u00admary and sec\u00adondary pack\u00adaging to end-of-line. During the pri\u00admary pack\u00adaging process, the end product makes direct \u00adcon\u00adtact with the plant and the pack\u00adaging mate\u00adrial. Accord\u00adingly, the require\u00adments for \u00adsterility and so-called hygienic design are high. Pilz thus pro\u00advides robust stain\u00adless steel \u00adver\u00adsions of safety gate switches such as the wash\u00adable PSENmag VA in IP 67\/69k with a very wide tem\u00adper\u00ada\u00adture range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The process must also be pro\u00adtected against un\u2011\u00adauthorised access. This can be per\u00adformed using a mod\u00adu\u00adlarly designed oper\u00adating mode selec\u00adtion and access per\u00admis\u00adsion system such as PITreader and PIT\u00admode fusion. With this, cer\u00adtain func\u00adtions and safe oper\u00adating modes can only be called up or gates, flaps and covers opened by people with the cor\u00adre\u00adsponding per\u00admis\u00adsion. This is a good example of how both safety and secu\u00adrity require\u00adments can be cov\u00adered with one system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Indus\u00adtrial fire\u00adwall solu\u00adtions like our Secu\u00adrity Bridge pro\u00adtect from unau\u00adtho\u00adrised external access to the machine con\u00adtroller \u2013 for example during ser\u00advice and main\u00adte\u00adnance. It mon\u00adi\u00adtors the data traffic between the PC and con\u00adtroller and reports \u00adunau\u00adtho\u00adrised changes to the con\u00adtrol project \u2013 making manip\u00adu\u00adla\u00adtion impos\u00adsible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The indi\u00advidual pack\u00adaging is placed into outer pack\u00adaging, such as card\u00adboard boxes. Tray for\u00admers are used here, for which Pilz now offers a new T\u00dcV S\u00fcd cer\u00adti\u00adfied solu\u00adtion. This pre\u00advents reaching into the machine when the card\u00adboard stack is used up. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Pal\u00adletising is pri\u00admarily per\u00adformed using robots that take pack\u00adages from the con\u00adveyor and stack them on a pallet. The safety con\u00adcept of these end-of-line cells often includes safety fences with safety gates and open\u00adings for feeding the pack\u00adages as well as loading and unloading the pal\u00adlets. To safe\u00adguard the open\u00adings, we offer safety light cur\u00adtains and scan\u00adners that are also used for pro\u00adtec\u00adtion against encroach\u00adment from behind. The safety gates are ide\u00adally safe\u00adguarded with our mod\u00adular safety gate system com\u00adprising PSEN\u00adm\u00adlock, a handle module and the push\u2011 button unit PIT\u00adgatebox \u2013 which can be \u00adcom\u00adbined with our access per\u00admis\u00adsion system PITreader.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As a side note, our mod\u00adular safety gate system is also well suited to the big, heavy gates in the pack\u00adaging industry. The module pro\u00advides the required robust\u00adness and tol\u00ader\u00adance so that the gate \u2013 should it ever happen to warp \u2013 can still be reli\u00adably oper\u00adated. Or we are also happy to work with the cus\u00adtomer to develop a spe\u00adcific solu\u00adtion depending on the require\u00adment, one that they can rely on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For me, one part of it is the human side. We take the cus\u00adtomer by the hand and work together to find a tai\u00adlored solu\u00adtion. We pro\u00advide com\u00adpre\u00adhen\u00adsive con\u00adsulting on machinery safety in the pack\u00adaging industry and on the appli\u00adca\u00adtion of our \u00adprod\u00aducts and pro\u00advide sup\u00adport in every phase, 24\/7. On the other side, our prod\u00aducts sat\u00adisfy the valid stan\u00addards and high quality demands. The cus\u00adtomer can be sure that employees and plants are pro\u00adtected from haz\u00adards, that down\u00adtimes are min\u00adimised and that pro\u00adduc\u00adtivity increases as a result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
