Application Notes
Wireless Call for Parts
A system of Banner’s TL70 wireless modular tower lights and K50 touch buttons provides an efficient, easy way to communicate a call for more parts with a forklift driver. When a workstation is almost out of cartons, the operator touches the ergonomic K50 touch button which changes the status on the connected TL70 wireless tower light to red.
Tank Farm Monitoring
With a Sure Cross Wireless Network, FlexPower Nodes are deployed at each tank without the need to run cables for power or I/O data transmission. Banner’s unique power management capability enables a Node equipped with an ultrasonic analog level sensor to operate for years on a single DX81 battery power supply. A DX80 FlexPower Node offers a combination of discrete and analog I/O in a single package, eliminating the need for time-consuming manual data collection.
Status Indication on Driverless Vehicles
The K50L domed 50 mm indicator light works well for status indication on autonomous shuttle buses. The buses operate on short distances in outdoor environments that exposed the bus technology to a variety of weather conditions. The rugged K50L indicators are rated IP67 and IP69K to withstand water ingress in the harsh environment.
Call for Parts (Put to Light)
When the supply of parts runs low, the assembler presses the EZ-LIGHT K50 push button to the left, which is used as a call button to signal to the runner to bring more parts. The K50 light to the right is used as a part-pick indicator.
Monitoring Operator Efficiency in a Printing Facility
A cardboard goods printer struggled with an inability to track machine operators’ efficiency and performance as measured against standard production rates.
Run Bar Provides Operator Guidance
A leading machine manufacturer builds workstations designed for accurate, timely and cost-effective battery cell assembly. A value added component of the workstations is an operator guidance device that does three jobs: enables assembly processes to start and stop, indicates parts to be picked and installed, and completely stops line operation if emergencies occur. When it became too costly for the OEM to construct and mount these devices themselves, they turned to Banner to craft an all-inclusive solution. To honor the time line requirements of their customer—a major tier two battery supplier—the OEM needed the solution in eight weeks.
Part Loaded Indicator
Before the EZ-LIGHT K50L indicator light was installed, the operator would place a part on the machine and then step out of the work area to check the stack light to see if the part was loaded properly. If not, the operator had to repeat the set-and-check process before initiating the machine's action on the part. Since the K50L was installed inside the workstation, using a simple Y splice, the operator can tell immediately if the part is correctly placed.

Operator Guidance Solution
A Henshaw customer manufactures drivetrain and powertrain systems for the automotive industry. The company had experienced productivity losses due to errors in the assembly of transmission valve bodies. Henshaw was tasked with developing a system that would reduce errors and improve the assembly process.
