1. Precision Electronics Assembly Workstations
Guarding the opening of small-scale robotic assembly workstations where operators frequently interact with the pick-and-place workspace.
Problem SolvedSpace is extremely limited inside tabletop workstations. Conventional light curtains are bulky and restrict worker movement or require a larger safety distance. The SF4C-F47's ultra-slim 13.2mm depth and 10mm beam pitch allow it to be mounted very close to the hazard point (shorter safety distance due to ø14mm finger protection) without sacrificing workspace.

2. High-Speed Packaging Machinery Entry/Exit Ports
Safety monitoring of packaging entry/exit points where conveyors feed raw material or boxes into a processing chamber.
Problem SolvedMaterial must pass freely, but human hands must not enter. Using the SF4C-F47's built-in advanced muting and blanking functions, the light curtain can bypass specific beam channels temporarily when a package passes through while remaining fully armed for unauthorized human intrusion.

3. Automated Testing & Quality Inspection Cabinets
Safeguarding the access panel of automatic circuit board testers and high-voltage inspection systems.
Problem SolvedHigh-frequency testing equipment often creates electrical noise or mutual optical interference if multiple test cells are placed next to each other. The SF4C-F47 employs the ELCA (Extraneous Light Check & Avoid) function to automatically shift scan timing, preventing false trips from neighboring sensors or electrical noise.
