HILLERSTORP, Sweden, March 7, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The world's safest machine guarding just got even safer. Troax has launched the innovative Troax Panel Detection, a patent-pending electronic device that allows us to detect if a panel is mounted correctly or not. Troax Panel Detection is the starting point of a new era in active safety for machine protection.

Troax Panel Detection is an automatic monitoring system that increases safety around a production cell, while avoiding the costs associated with accidents. What used to be mechanical security in the form of robust panels, posts and fixings is now also electronic security prepared for Industry 4.0.

"This is a great day for Troax and for the entire industry. Troax Panel Detection not only expands our offering, it redefines the concept of machine guarding. By integrating technology in this way, we make the use of our existing products easier." even safer and smarter," said Thomas Widstrand, Chairman and CEO of Troax Group AB.

Detect invisible dangersTroax Panel Detection is an electronic device that is intelligently integrated into the panel fixing. In addition to traditional Troax fixings, they also record if panels are refitted after checks and maintenance. Now it is practically impossible not to detect the lack of a panel.

"Troax Panel Detection takes machine guarding to a whole new level. It can be considered a new sixth sense for our customers. There is now the ability to detect previously unnoticed hazards and costs. Customers who prioritize safety and security efficiency they can now take more responsibility for the safety of their staff," said Josephine Granell, Product Manager Machine Guarding, Troax AB.

How Troax Panel Detection worksTroax Panel Detection can be used up to SIL3/PLe and is compatible with all PLC systems. Up to 200 units can be connected via a single cable. As soon as a panel is removed, a signal is sent to the PLC system. Choose what action the Panel Detection signal should cause: turn on warning lights, send warning messages, prevent a restart, or stop the machine if a panel is not put back in place. To easily find where a panel is missing, the green light on the Panel Detection unit turns red to indicate that the panel is no longer mounted. Once all the panels are in place, production can safely resume. Troax Panel Detection is a well-documented system that adapts to Troax machine guarding solutions, allowing existing Troax machine guarding to be retrofitted.

"Innovations such as Troax Panel Detection and solutions from our recently acquired company Claitec herald a new era for Troax. Our physical protection offering is now complemented by electronic preventive security solutions. An exciting time awaits us in both passive and active security. Troax Panel Detection is the starting point," said Martin Henkow, Project Manager Troax Panel Detection, Troax AB.
