Q: What is the blanking function of a safety light curtain?

Update Time:2025/6/14

A:


The blanking function of the safety light curtain mainly includes two types: fixed blanking and floating blanking, which are used to temporarily shield certain light axes in specific applications to prevent non-dangerous objects from triggering alarms.

Fixed blanking: The beam area at the preset position is shielded, which is suitable for long-term fixed objects (such as fixtures, conveyor line structures, etc.).

Floating blanking: The shielded object is allowed to move within a certain range, which is suitable for dynamic scenes such as material in and out or robot arm movement.

These two blanking methods improve the operating efficiency and adaptability of the equipment without reducing the overall safety level.
