FAQ
What is ISO 13849, and why does it matter?
ISO 13849 is the international standard for the safety-related parts of machine control systems. It defines performance levels (PL) for safety functions like e-stops, interlocks, and light curtains. Designing to ISO 13849 and documenting the result is essential for CE marking and for demonstrating due diligence on safety.
Where do I need a safety light curtain vs. a laser scanner?
Light curtains protect defined openings like guarding doors, robot cell entries, press points. Laser scanners protect area zones with configurable warning and stop fields, ideal for AGV paths, collaborative zones, and irregular floor layouts. Tavoron helps spec the right device for your application.
Can aluminum framing be used for both guarding and tooling fixtures?
Yes - modular T-slot aluminum extrusion is the industry standard for perimeter guarding, machine bases, workstations, and custom tooling fixtures. Tavoron stocks profiles, fasteners, and accessories with full design support.
Â
Do safety light curtains require a safety relay or controller?
Yes. Light curtains must be integrated with a rated safety relay, safety PLC, or safety controller to deliver the required performance level for the safety function. Tavoron supplies and integrates the full architecture.
