QS QuickSTOP™ Collision Sensors

QS QuickSTOP™ Collision Sensors

Applied Robotics’ QuickSTOPTM collision sensors are at work on just about every type
of assembly line in the world – proof of their value.

With dynamically variable trip points and permanent repeatability, they’re uniquely designed to help protect your investment in automation equipment and resources.

See how our collision sensors have worked to solve our customers’ more specialized application challenges – in assembly, cutting systems (plasma, laser, waterjet and fabric), dispensing, material handling and welding.

Anti-collision Sensors

QuickSTOPTM

The QuickSTOPTM is a dynamically variable collision sensor that operates on an air pressure system – and provides excellent protection in machine load/unload robotics applications.

A regulated air supply provides positive, variable pressure to hold the collision sensor rigid during normal operation. At impact, the air chamber seal is opened, immediately signaling the system controller.

Advantages

  • Dynamically variable trip points
  • Permanent repeatability
  • Detects angular, rotational and compressive forces
