Interested in reducing machine downtime? Consider smart safety solutions. Allen-Bradley® safety solutions by Rockwell Automation® provide detailed data so you can quickly track down the cause of shutdowns and save troubleshooting time.
PowerFlex Drives
The Allen-Bradley® PowerFlex® family of VFDs offer a broad range of control modes, features, options, packaging, global voltages, and power ratings. This flexible portfolio is designed to keep you connected to your operations and ultimately improve productivity.
The PowerFlex® Compact Class VFD delivers a cost-effective, general-purpose solution for applications that require speed control and simple system integration. The PowerFlex® standard and high power VFD provides a broad set of features and application-specific parameters. These drives are ideal for applications that require speed, torque, and/or position control.
PowerFlex® drives address productivity concerns by offering safety options that help protect your people and equipment while also reducing planned and unplanned downtime.
ArmorKinetix
Manufacturers are increasingly seeking scalable solutions that simplify their machine control architectures, minimize the number of components, reduce manufacturing time, and optimize productivity. ArmorKinetix® Distributed Servo Drives enable customers to achieve these goals by providing a simplified architecture that mounts the servo solution outside of an electrical cabinet. As a result, machines can now be designed to be more modular while reducing cabinet size, cabling, and cooling requirements.
The smart servo drives also include vibration and thermal sensors that can detect potential machine issues, providing the ability to proactively identify and address problems and increase system uptime. This proactive approach is a catalyst for increased productivity.
Presence Sensing Safety Devices
Built to global standards for high reliability, stability and quality, Rockwell Automation® safety solutions help protect your people, machinery, and environment while maximizing uptime. Allen-Bradley® presence sensing safety devices from Rockwell Automation--including pressure sensitive safety mats and edges, GuardShield™ light curtains and SafeZone™ safety scanners--are ideal for applications where personnel need finger, hand, or whole-body detection with frequent and safe access to hazardous areas around machinery.
Whether it’s robotic welding, machining centers, stamping, hydraulic presses, filter presses or packaging equipment applications, Allen-Bradley safety sensors cover everything from basic on/off functionality to more advanced EtherNet/IP™ enabled smart solutions.
E-Stops and Safety Switches
Built to global standards for high reliability, stability and quality, Rockwell Automation® safety solutions help protect your people, machinery, and environment while maximizing uptime. Allen-Bradley® Guardmaster® safety switches from Rockwell Automation®--including e-stops, interlock switches, safety limit switches, Prosafe™ trapped key interlocks, SensaGuard™ non-contact safety switches and machine access control products--help protect personnel and equipment by providing physical interlocking of guard doors and equipment, allowing access to potentially hazardous areas only when the area is safe.
Whether it’s interlocking of swinging, sliding or removable guard doors, full body access applications or sequential access control, Allen-Bradley Guardmaster safety switches are a cost-effective solution for a wide range of your machine guarding applications.
