Safety Arrangements
Lazer Safe - Performance Without Compromise
The LZS and IRIS Series Safety Laser Protection systems deliver exceptional optical safety while ensuring optimal productivity and performance for CNC press brakes.
Optical Safety System - Advanced
CAMT CNC press brake, equipped with the OEM-embedded Lazersafe system, provides an efficient solution for ensuring operator safety while maximizing machine productivity. Compatible with Lazer Safe’s PCSS A Service, the Lazersafe meets Category 4 safety standards and complies with the most stringent global safety requirements, featuring a CE-certified Category 4 Safety Controller with integrated functionality.
Optional:
- Lazersafe-PCSS A0 LZS-XL
- Lazersafe-PCSS IRIS

Advantage:
- CLASS 1 Dual Block laser
- Fast response time
- Safety speed automatically monitored
- Stopping distance automatically monitored
- Status LEDs - Power / Front/middle/rear Sensors
- Tray mode for high speed bending of tray & box shapes
- Complex shapes can be achieved in high speed with Tray/Box Mode.
Automatic Tool Alignment:
Systems equipped with a camera receiver offer automated tool alignment, removing the need for precise manual adjustments. This process can be fully automated through the CNC using SmartLink, eliminating the requirement for the operator to press the TOOL ALIGN button.


Certification And Standards Compliance:
The OEM Embedded Systems LZS and IRIS Series hardware and software are CE certified and fully compliant with global press brake safety standards, including EN12622, ANSI B11.3-2012, CSA Z142-10, and NR12.






Press Brake Control Safety System - Advanced
The PCSS-A is a programmable safety controller engineered to enhance the safety and efficiency of press brakes. It offers manufacturers flexibility and streamlines the design process by integrating all control, safety, and monitoring functions into a single system, eliminating the need for complex integration of third-party components and software. The PCSS-A delivers an ideal combination of performance and functionality while reducing production costs.

This offers a streamlined and cost-effective solution with fewer components, simplified wiring, an intuitive interface, and CE-certified hardware and software, designed to minimize engineering and assembly time.
