Ants have great flexibility and are extremely strong, in spite of their size. The ant now shares these characteristics with our new compact AZM40 solenoid interlock.
Schmersal is pleased to introduce the new, space-saving RFID-based solenoid interlock: with dimensions of just 119.5 x 40 x 20 mm, the AZM40 is the smallest electronic solenoid interlock in the world. It is ideal for smaller safety doors and flaps, and is also an efficient safety solution, as space requirements are an important cost factor in production environments.
Additional benefit: the AZM40 is very flexible in use. Thanks to the 180 degree angle flexibility, the actuator can approach continuously so that the interlock can also be used on flaps that do not close at a 90 degree angle or that open upwards at a 45 degree angle. This ensures that the interlock can be easily installed even in confined and difficult-to-access locations.
It doesn't get much smaller: with dimensions of just 119.5 x 40 x 20 mm, the AZM40 is extremely compact. And thanks to the unique clamping principle, incredibly efficient. This allows optimal positioning of the RFID sensors to ensure seamless processes.
The AZM40 has a high clamping force of 2,000 Newtons. In addition, the interlock is manipulation-safe. Thanks to integrated RFID technology, the coding level is "high" in accordance with ISO 14119.
The 180° angular flexibility of the actuator ensures maximum installation flexibility. In addition, the AZM40 operates to the bistable active principle, which ensures fail-safe operation in every machine switching condition and low energy consumption.
