Analysis of the prospects of China's safety light curtain market and its application range
Times:2018-12-06 Hits:904 At present, there are many brands of safety light curtains in China, and the competition between regular manufacturers and small workshops is extremely fierce. For many manufacturers in the past few years, in order to cope with safety inspections, low-cost products have been required. Therefore, some small workshops have achieved a certain degree of sales in low-priced products. However, because small workshops have no technical development capability, it is often that some ordinary photoelectric circuits are assembled in series. It has become a product and is called a safety light curtain. These products have no safety circuit and self-test circuit design, so the price is cheap, it is not a safety light curtain in the sense.At present, in the safety light curtain market, 71% of the products are used for mechanical point protection, and 29% of the products are used for channel entrance and hazardous peripheral area protection. From the perspective of the business performance of various competitors' markets, European and American companies mainly promote safety light curtains through engineering projects, mainly used in the automotive industry, packaging industry and rubber and plastics industry, for channel access or hazardous area protection; and Japan, Korea, Taiwan and Mainland enterprises mainly carry out business through cooperation with mainland machinery and equipment manufacturers, while focusing on the development of spare parts and machinery equipment aftermarket.
The safety light curtains used in the mainland market are mainly grade 2 and below, including products such as partial area sensors or photoelectric switches. The actual ratio of the 2nd and 4th grade products is close to 9:1; in this context, the European and American brands have also adjusted their product strategies and increased the introduction of a cost-effective 2nd-grade product, which has achieved good results in the market.
From the perspective of the resolution of the application product, products of 20mm and above occupy 87% of the market. Among them, safety light curtain products with a palm resolution of 30mm (optical axis spacing of 20mm) and a protective arm resolution of 50mm (optical axis spacing of 40mm) are most concentrated. Other protection categories such as finger protection resolution is 15mm (optical axis spacing 10mm), human body protection resolution is 70mm (optical axis spacing 60mm).
