Safety

The MGB2 Modular secures safety doors and fences on machines and installations during hazardous machine movements. A modular design is the secret behind the system’s adaptability to specific requirements.

The metal processing industry has relied on industrial safety engineering from Euchner for decades. Highlights at this year’s EMO include the latest communicating safety guard locking devices, the new CTS compact guard locking device, and the CTA safety switch for harsh environments. Euchner will also be showcasing its versatile new CKS2 key system for machines and installations. The proven MGB2 Modular for safety doors is now available for EtherCAT/FSoE as well.

The CKS2 from Euchner is a new, safe key system that is simple to integrate into the overall control system and suitable for a wealth of applications.

Consider a highly automated logistics center with fenced-in robots and storage and retrieval machines, conveyor systems and pallets as far as the eye can see.

The multi-talented MGB2 Modular can now do even more

The MGB2 Modular secures safety doors and fences on machines and installations during hazardous machine movements. A modular design is the secret behind the system’s adaptability to specific requirements.

In modern plants, safety is an essential requirement. This includes the ability to lock and start machines safely, restrict access to certain areas and select the operating mode.

Safety engineering specialist Euchner has modernized the lighting system for its two-storey logistics building in Leinfelden near Stuttgart.

Euchner’s corporate philosophy covers everything from protecting the environment and handling natural resources with consideration to reducing energy consumption and using low-pollutant materials. This enabled the company to cut energy consumption by nearly half and save 10.2 metric tons of CO₂.

Smart safety solutions to meet individual customers’ requirements

Digitalisation is spreading fast in the production and process industry. Safety engineering solutions from Euchner with communication and networking capabilities are helping businesses to shape this transformation. These include new features for the highly versatile MGB2 Modular safety door system, which is now available with a new bus module for connection to the EtherCAT/FSoE bus protocol.

If there is one area where applications are becoming ever-more complex, it’s safety engineering. EUCHNER has not only kept up with this trend with its Multifunctional Gate Box (MGB) safety door system, but has gone a step further by employing modular design to make the MGB2 Modular fully customisable for maximum optimisation. The modular system features a separate locking module, bus module and submodules, making it suitable for implementing a wide range of additional functions.
