Lenze product story

Lenze is adding the Patlite range of signal towers and beacons to its range, ideal to clearly indicate machine status for both production lines and individual machines
In a move designed to offer a higher degree of safety to machine operators and production personnel across all industries, Lenze, one of Europe's leading manufacturers of drive technology and automation systems, is adding the Patlite range of signal towers and beacons to its already extensive product selection.
Based in Japan, Patlite's considerable experience in the design and manufacture of indicator and warning systems has earned the company a large share of the American and Far East markets, as well as a reputation for innovation and manufacturing excellence.
Recognising these qualities, and the need for greater choice in safety equipment for manufacturers in this country, Lenze has secured the exclusive rights to supply Patlite's products to the UK market.
The signal towers and beacons are ideal for both production lines and individual machines.
By electronically interfacing with machine control systems, the towers and beacons are able to clearly indicate machine status, while warning operators of potential danger, via a series of coloured lights and an optional audible alarm.
With the choice of continuous or flashing LEDs, the signal towers typically feature three lights: green to indicate normal operation, amber to indicate the on-set of potential problems, and red indicating a fault and machine stop.
Featuring a patented double-reflection system, the tower's 'super bright' LED lights provide the highest level of visibility available, together with an average life of 100,000 hours; making for virtually maintenance-free operation.
In addition, the tower's unique structure helps reduce vibration and impact from machines and devices, also contributing to significantly extending the life.
Signal Towers are available in diameters of 50mm and 70mm, with a choice of up to five light modules.
Wall mounted beacons are also included in the range.
All products are IP54 or IP65 rated and are competitively priced.
Lenze customers can obtain the products through an easy-to-order system that allows them to specify ready assembled towers.
