Service vehicle equipped with Tyro remote control

Arcxis, located in Belgium, specializes in fitting out commercial vehicles. For one of their customers, they have fitted out a service vehicle that uses a remote control by Tyro Remotes.

The commercial vehicle is fully equipped to provide maintenance and servicing for semi-trailers and trailers on the road should they run into problems. This vehicle is equipped with hose reels for compressed air, gas, and oxygen so that welding or other necessary repairs can also be carried out on the road.

The Pyxis 8F remote control in combination with the Aquarius 10F receiver is specifically configured for the 24V cable reel. The cable reel with 20 meters cable and 13-pin plug is used to control the lighting on e.g. a trailer. With the remote control in your hand, you can stand behind the trailer to easily and efficiently test the lighting.

Temperature measurement in livestock cargo

In animal transport, the temperature inside the cargo should legally meet certain standards. The temperature is measured by a sensor and can be read in the cabin. For such an application you need a duplex remote.

A Tyro remote has already been used for the operation of valves, bulkheads, shaft, and the fan, therefore, it was a small step for Tyro to make a duplex remote control with a display to read the temperature on the transmitter. By doing that, Tyro made it possible to read the temperature on the transmitter!

Reliable, safe, and custom-made are the core values of the tyro remotes.

This project shows our core value that we are good at customization. The other two values that our products are reliable and safe are evident from the rapid growth of our organization, various certifications that we have, and our reputed client base.

Many customers are also attracted to Tyro’s flexibility as an organization and as a manufacturer of industrial remote controls. At tyro, customer-specific modifications can be achieved quickly and cost-effectively.

Mobile Conveyors Provide Flexibility and Efficiency

Mobile conveyors are widely used in agriculture, aggregate production, construction, and mining and offer a range of benefits that can be greatly enhanced with wireless automation and tight integration to engine and machine control. Combined with engine and machine control solutions, mobile conveyors become easily adjustable, allowing for quick adaptation to changing process needs. A mobile conveyor enabled with wireless automation can improve production capacity while providing a wider field of view, enhancing safety for operators when transporting hazardous materials.

Integrated Controls Can Boost Productivity and Safety

Operating mobile conveyors efficiently requires intelligent machine control systems to effectively control and regulate movement and overall performance while enhancing operator safety. Utilizing Cattron’s application engineering expertise and an integrated controls approach will result in optimized control over the conveyor’s speed, direction, and material-carrying capacity. The system architecture can be set up to enable a radio remote control option. Wireless remote controls allow operators to interact with the conveyor without any physical interface, boosting safety and efficiency. Incorporating our cloud-based telematics solutions can add another level of intelligence, enabling real-time monitoring, remote diagnostics, and machine tracking.

The Cattron integrated controls approach can add significant value to your business.  Machine operators will benefit from our market-leading technology and system expertise:

Integrated Mobile Conveyor Control

Magnetically or RFID-coded safety sensors provide contactless security for doors, hoods and flaps

For any machine requiring a fixed guard-door or cover, the YSR series ensures reliable state monitoring (door open or closed). Thanks to their serial connection capability, YSR types are particularly suitable for applications using multiple sensors, such as long packaging or assembly lines. These RFID-coded devices are classified type 4 according to ISO 14119.

RFID technology enables the user to assign a unique code to each sensor and actuator system, which greatly reduces the risk of tampering. YSR sensors can also be connected in series via the OSSD output and inputs, allowing up to 30 sensors to connect with just one relay or controller.

Since each sensor can provide individual feedback, it is possible to identify which guard-doors are open and which are closed. This is particularly useful when many sensors are connected in series.

The YSR series is part of a range of non-contact safety sensors used to monitor guard-doors, hoods or covers. Thanks to non-contact switching and coded RFID communication, the service life of these compact sensors is very long. Housings are ECOLAB-approved and rated to IP6K9K, making them suitable for washdown applications.

Safety level is category 4 according to ISO 13849-1.

Labeling machines
For the operators of fully automated product labeling machines, the hazard involved is mostly slight.
If the result of the risk assessment allows the use of a Type 2 / PL c / SIL 1 safety light curtain, a protected machine opening can be used to interrupt the conveyor or material feeding as well as the labeling process itself as soon as an operator reaches into the protective field of the light curtain.
Furthermore, the same installation can be used to detect a material jam or products that have tipped over.

  • Simple wiring with standard M12 connectors
  • Ingress protection degree IP 65 + IP 67
  • Easy-to-use mounting brackets included

Pick-and-place robots
Many pick and place tasks are performed with the help of small robots, which represent a relatively modest hazard to staff. If the result of the risk assessment allows the use of a Type 2 / PL c / SIL 1 safety light curtain, the robot arm movements can simply be stopped if an operator reaches into the process during operation.
This then protects very effectively both the operator and the machinery.

  • Cost-effective and safe solution
  • Robust mechanical design
  • Operating distance up to 12 m

Laser cutting machines with moving tables
Laser cutters with fast-moving tables holding the working pieces represent a risk to machine operators. A safety light curtain can be considered to prevent people from reaching into or entering the ongoing process. In case of intrusion during a potentially dangerous phase, table movement can be stopped promptly.
If the result of the risk assessment allows the use of a Type 2 / PL c / SIL 1 safety light curtain, the protection is very effective. In addition, a direct view onto the working process is possible with no physical barriers that complicate access to the machine or finished parts.

  • Protective heights available from 150 mm to 1827 mm
  • Quick response time allows installation close to the working process
  • Mirror columns available for multi-side protection
