The present invention relates to a security system ( 10 ) for securing a restricted access area in a converting machine. The security system ( 10 ) comprises a detection unit ( 20 ) comprising a plurality of sensors ( 22 ) arranged side by side an having a vertical sensing direction. Each sensor has an individual contr
- OT-2026-000000060
This disclosure describes a guarding interlock system employing a coded magnetic sensor and a defeat-resistant mounting arrangement. The system addresses the common problem of guard defeat due to operational inconvenience, which can lead to hazardous conditions. By utilizing a unique magnetic code and a mounting method
- OT-2026-000000057
This disclosure describes an emergency stop (E-stop) architecture designed for industrial production lines segmented into independently supplied operational zones. The system addresses the challenge of providing localized safety shutdowns without requiring a full line stoppage for every minor incident, while also ensur
- OT-2026-000000048
This disclosure describes a system for dynamically adjusting the muting window of a light curtain based on conveyor speed. The arrangement addresses the limitations of fixed muting windows, which can either create unsafe conditions by allowing personnel access behind slow-moving objects or cause nuisance trips with fas
- OT-2026-000000040
This disclosure describes a mobile racking system configured to manage the kinetic energy of closing aisles, addressing the fundamental hazard of personnel entrapment. The system employs a specific aisle opening sequence and movement control strategy to limit the maximum kinetic energy achievable by any closing aisle s
- OT-2026-000000031
This disclosure describes a control system for a vacuum tube lifter designed to enhance safety during unexpected vacuum supply interruptions. Conventional systems can lead to rapid load release, posing risks. The proposed arrangement incorporates a vacuum reservoir and a check valve to maintain vacuum integrity for a c
- OT-2026-000000015
This disclosure describes a method and system for dynamic speed and separation monitoring for robotic manipulators. It addresses the limitations of fixed safety zones that either cause premature robot stops or necessitate conservative sizing, leading to reduced operational throughput. The described arrangement computes
- OT-2026-000000008
This disclosure describes a dock leveller lip control system designed to maintain continuous contact between the leveller lip and a trailer bed during loading or unloading operations. The system addresses the problem of trailer suspension settling, which causes the trailer bed height to decrease as its load increases,
