Pilz, a supplier of machine-safe automation technology, has developed a comprehensive safety solution in accordance with ISO 3691-4 for an efficient flow of goods in production and logistics handled by Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMR). It consists of the safe small controller PNOZmulti 2 with new functionalities for synchronization monitoring and activation, the safety laser scanner PSENscan, and the industrial firewall SecurityBridge.
Freely navigating mobile platforms, AMRs can avoid obstacles or people without stopping. The required safety functions are complex. Particularly when cornering, it must be possible to switch between several protection zones to ensure that collisions are avoided.
