An electrically controlled mechanical locking system
This type of interlock is recommended for machinery and systems featuring moving parts, residual inertia or dangerous movements that continue for a period even after a stop command. These applications require an electrically controlled mechanical locking system that physically prevents access to the danger area until safe conditions have been established.
Operation and release logic of electromechanical interlocks
Pizzato safety interlocks with electromechanical guard locking keep the guard locked using a mechanical holding system that is electrically controlled, with monitoring of the actuator and solenoid that operates the locking function.
