What are Safety Sensors and Switches?
The safety sensors are presence detection equipment most commonly used in machine guarding applications to detect the presence of any object or person. The safety switches are safety devices which monitor movable safety guards such as doors, covers, shafts and so on. Safety sensors and switches play a crucial role to ensure safety of employees and workers in Human Machine Interface. These products act as a bridge between human and machine interaction to avoid work hazards. The safety sensors encompass wide range of components such as infrared sensors, fiber optic sensors, proximity sensors, vision sensors, magnetic sensors and ultrasonic sensors.
What are the major applications for Safety Sensors and Switches?
The wide range of applications for safety sensors and switches include safety laser scanners, safety mats, safety edges, safety light curtains, anti-collision sensors, material handling, conveyor systems, transport systems, assembling, packaging, automated guarded vehicles and more. These sensors have wide range of end user applications such as, aerospace, automotive, pharmaceutical, paper and pulp, mining, semiconductor, food and beverages, hospitals and so on.
Market Research and Market Trends of Safety Sensors and Switches
The safety sensors are used in blind spot monitoring technology which is used in car safety assistance. The technology offers the most accurate and least distracting safety assistance by using safety sensors in the rear quarter of the vehicles. The driver is cautioned of any incoming vehicles in the blind spot, by activation of a flash light in the side mirrors. Generally, the blind spot detection is activated once the turn signal is put on, but the latest cars have it activated at all times for superior safety.
The Mine Safety Appliances Company has been in the top of the game in the chemical industry for most of the fixed gas detection systems, which have been constructed with discrete infrared safety sensors. The company recently introduced a dual sensor transmitter design for fixed gas detectors called Ultima X5000 Gas Monitor. This safety sensor can detect two different gases due to its dual sensor design, by increasing its capabilities by 50% efficiency than the previous model. These types of safety infrared sensors will have a great scope in the chemical industry and enhance the market growth.
