KEYENCE (Ramsey, NJ) has introduced the new GL-R Series to its safety light curtain lineup. The GL-R features a strong, simple, and smart design that provides a rugged, yet versatile solution, according to the company. The GL-R Series is built from a 3-millimeter thick extruded aluminum body with a 9-millimeter wide recessed lens surface to guard the light curtain from impact damage. It also features new wiring systems and brackets for simplified installation—most notable are the one-line wiring system and quick fit brackets. New “smart” features include edge to-edge detection, series connection, built-in muting and blanking, quick disconnect cable options, and monitoring software.
