QS-7 Collision Sensor
2Pages

QuickSTOP Collision Sensor QuickSTOP is a dynamically variable collision sensor that operates on air pressure. At impact, the air chamber is opened, and the shutdown signal is immediately sent to the system controller. • Dynamically Variable Trip points allow you to program your collision sensor at all speeds of an operation. The breakaway threshold adjusts to match the working force ranges of your robot/application. • All QuickSTOP models feature a noncom-pressive, metal to metal seal which ensures reliable and consistent operation, giving you permanent repeatability. • Senses Angular and Compressive Forces. QuickSTOP’s unique design offers protection in the X,Y, and Z axes. • QuickSTOP monitors Performance Readiness. When pressurized, the pressure switch is closed indicating that the QuickSTOP is reset in the proper position. • At the moment of impact, the QuickSTOP’s air chamber is opened, exhausting pressure which instantly opens the pressure switch and causes loss of signal. • Pressure loss upon impact offers better tool protection as the QuickSTOP absorbs energy and removes the force from your tool and robot wrist.
