Description
To guard the perimeter of a tube bender work cell, two free-standing corner mirrors are set up to reflect the sensing field from the emitter, around the perimeter’s corners, to the receiver. Using corner mirrors is an economical way to make use of the range of an EZ-SCREEN safety light screen by guarding multiple sides of an area with one emitter/receiver pair.
