Safety mats are a type of safety device used in industrial settings to detect the presence of personnel in hazardous areas. They consist of a flexible mat with a pressure-sensitive switch embedded within it. When someone steps on the mat, the switch is activated, sending a signal to the machine control system to stop or slow down the machinery to prevent injury. Safety mats are used in a wide range of applications, from robotic workcells to conveyor systems. They are designed to be durable, resistant to wear and tear, and easily replaceable in case of damage. Some safety mats also have built-in safety features such as dual channels and self-checking circuitry to ensure reliable operation.
