PPMA PREVIEW
EUCHNER TO SHOWCASE FIRST FLEXFUNCTION DEVICES AT PPMA 2022
E
uchner will use this year’s PPMA exhibition to launch two new products – the Industry 4.0 Ready CTS safety switch and CKS2 coded key system – and showcase its extensive range of guard locking products available for common fieldbus connections.
The one-fits-all CTS is Euchner’s first FlexFunction device and expands the company’s product range by sitting between the CTP and CTM safety switch solutions and combining the best of both worlds in a single switch while offering maximum flexibility. A key innovation of the IO- Link compatible CTS is the FlexFunction feature that, by using the transponder-coded actuator to determine a switch’s function, allows a single device to perform a wide variety of functions that would otherwise require several switch variants. Its compact dimensions, high locking force of 3,900N and suitability to mount in three orientations ensures the CTS is suitable for use across numerous safety engineering applications.
Combined with highly-coded, transponder- based keys, the new CKS2 forms a safe system that meets the highest safety requirements for machine and installation lockout and starting. Thanks to the integrated evaluation electronics and depending on the key used, various safety engineering tasks are possible with the compact CKS2 key system. It can be integrated as a module within Euchner’s Multifunction Gate Box MGB2, expanding the functionality of the simple door interlocking solution to a small control terminal with access control. Additionally, combining it with Euchner’s IO-Link Gateways expands its applications and enables comprehensive diagnostic and communication functions.
Thanks to its modular approach, the unique MGB2 interlocking or guard locking system for the protection of safety doors on machines and systems is more than simply a safety switch or bolt and offers a vast array of safety functionality. By incorporating additional safety modules into the
MGB2, machine builders can include numerous functions, including guard locking, escape release, start/stop, emergency stop, etc. Its modular design also means the MGB2 can remove the additional need for a separate operator panel; and with networking opportunities available, it also reduces wiring and installation time.
For further information on these and other machinery safety solutions, the company’s technical and product support team will be on stand E68 at PPMA 2022 from 27th to 29th September.
