Emergency Stop Buttons on a Conveyor |
|
As products move down the conveyor, Emergency Stop (E-Stop) buttons are linked 8 to 10 feet apart to ensure all areas of the conveyor are covered in case of an emergency. In an emergency, operators press the red button of the E-Stop to immediately shut down the machine. It can be time-consuming to determine exactly what E-stop button is pressed, and typically an emergency stop condition requires a reset of all the E-Stop buttons. |
