Real installations from the field: DAIDISIKE safety light curtains and feeding systems on pneumatic and hydraulic presses and on coil-fed stamping lines. Each clip shows how the equipment is mounted and used in a working shop. For any installation, the protective field, resolution and mounting distance are set from a risk assessment and an ISO 13855 calculation against the machine’s measured stopping time.
60-Ton Pneumatic Punch Press with Photoelectric Guarding
A 60-ton pneumatic punch press fitted with a DAIDISIKE photoelectric protective device at the point of operation. Pneumatic presses cycle quickly, so the light curtain guards the operator's loading position — breaking the field commands the stroke to stop. The clip shows the device mounted at the working opening; in practice the mounting distance is set with ISO 13855 against the machine's measured stopping time.
DQA Long-Format Safety Light Curtain at an Automotive Plant (Foshan)
A major automotive brand's plant in Foshan using the DQA series long-format safety light curtain to guard a tall access opening. The extended protective height suits the large openings found on automotive press and assembly equipment, keeping the access point open for the operator while protecting the hazard zone.
Coil-Fed Stamping Line — 2-in-1 Decoiler/Straightener and Servo Roll Feeder
Press peripheral automation in action: a 2-in-1 material rack (decoiler plus straightener) feeding a servo roll feeder into a stamping press. Automated coil feeding raises consistency and reduces manual handling at the press, which pairs naturally with point-of-operation guarding for the operator.
Four-Column Hydraulic Press paired with a DQA Light Curtain
A four-column hydraulic press guarded with the DQA safety light curtain at the operator opening. Hydraulic presses have their own stopping characteristics, so the protective field and the ISO 13855 mounting distance are matched to the machine during commissioning.
Pneumatic Punch Press with the A50 Air Feeder
A pneumatic punch press using the A50 pneumatic feeder to advance strip material automatically through its grip–push–release cycle. The clip shows automated short-pitch feeding in a real stamping application, the kind of setup where reliable point-of-operation guarding matters as cycle rate rises.
Legacy Pneumatic Press — Safety Light Curtain Retrofit on a Side Tubular Bracket
An older pneumatic press retrofitted with a DAIDISIKE safety light curtain mounted on a tubular bracket fixed to the side of the press. It shows how an existing machine can be brought up to point-of-operation guarding without replacing the press — a retrofit guided by a risk assessment, stop-time measurement and the ISO 13855 distance.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are these real DAIDISIKE installations?
Yes — the clips are real application footage of DAIDISIKE safety light curtains and feeding equipment on punch presses, hydraulic presses and coil-fed lines. They show how the devices are mounted and used; specific customer details are kept anonymous.
Which safety light curtain is shown guarding the presses?
The footage features the DQA series, including a long-format version for tall openings, as well as photoelectric protective devices at the point of operation. The right model depends on the required resolution, protective height and the machine's risk assessment.
Can a safety light curtain be retrofitted to an old press?
Yes. One clip shows a legacy pneumatic press retrofitted with a light curtain on a side tubular bracket. A retrofit follows a risk assessment, a stop-time measurement and an ISO 13855 safety-distance calculation, and does not require replacing the press.
Do safety light curtains work alongside automatic feeders?
Yes. The videos show pneumatic (A50) and servo coil feeders working with guarding in place. Automating the feed reduces manual handling, while the light curtain protects the point of operation as the cycle rate rises.
How do I get the right setup for my machine?
Share your machine type, the size of the hazardous opening and the measured stopping time, and our engineers can advise on resolution, protective height, safety level and the ISO 13855 mounting distance for your application.
Planning a press or line upgrade?
Tell us your machine type, the size of the hazardous opening and the measured stopping time, and our engineers will help you select the resolution, protective height and safety level, and calculate the ISO 13855 mounting distance for your application.
