According to the National Safety Council, nearly 13,000 American workers suffer preventable injuries daily.
Thankfully the products available for machine safety are more advanced and reliable than they have ever been.
In recognition of National Safety Month, we are highlighting some of our trusted safety partners. Power/mation is dedicated to helping you design for safety.
Expanded Capabilities for Inxpect's Radar-Based Safety System
New sensors, controllers, FSoE protocol, and accessories with enhanced FOV settings, features and capabilities
Inxpect safety products are designed and third-party certified for advanced industrial automation and robotic systems based on radar technology.
The Inxpect system monitors in 3D which provides comprehensive volumetric coverage to detect the entrance and presence of personnel in defined hazardous areas to provide a stop command to machinery and/or prevent a machine restart until the area is confirmed to be motion free.
The Inxpect radar safety system excels where optical devices fail.

Built as part of the heavy-duty range, the Networked Interlock is the industry leader for applications where robustness is paramount.
✅ Robust, highly configurable units together with a fast, high-performance network protocol.
✅ Validation of safety functions can be achieved at a fraction of the time and cost with safety modules inside the Fortress device, reducing the effort required to individually test each safety input and output.
✅ Easy connection with various connector set options. No need for hardwiring, reducing installation time and cost.
✅ Introducing EtherCAT - A new feature to the amGardpro range allowing proNet units to communicate with EtherCAT-based systems for industrial safety and control.
Safety engineering is one of the most important requirements in factory automation. That is why Festo produces products that are the perfect prerequisite to enable you to implement safety engineering as easily and cost-efficiently as possible.
Banner's EZ-STATUS® LED devices can be used to illuminate areas and equipment and to provide an unmistakable visual alert to changing conditions and status.
Create a custom safety relay in 10-minutes or less
For nearly 4 decades, Pilz has been a leader and innovator in machine safety technology. Now with their revolutionary development, myPNOZ, Pilz has again broken the mold when it comes to advancing machinery safety.
The Q300 and Q180 UHF readers allow connections of 4 external UHF antennas and have an integrated CODESYS runtime.
These Ethernet-capable solutions increase the reliability of UHF RFID applications, and thanks to external antennas, are also ideal in factories for continuous identification of objects throughout the production process.
They are rated IP67, multiprotocol for multiple platform use and are easy to set up thanks to web-based configuration of RFID parameters.
The Flex-X Nano from Trio is a low-cost multi-axis (up to 64 tightly synchronized axes) Motion Controller that can be an Ethercat master and is only 17mm wide.
Powerful, compact, and flexible, the Flex-X Nano improves on the performance of Trio's best-selling Flex-6 Nano.
Phoenix Contact's Ethernet APL enables the direct two-wire Ethernet connection of devices and sensors in the Ex zones of process technology applications (“Ethernet in the field”).
Ethernet APL is intended for use in potentially explosive areas (zones 1 and 2 or division 2), so that all increased demands regarding explosion protection can be met with the degrees of protection of increased safety or intrinsic safety.
