Two-hand control panels are non-separating protection devices. In general, they serve to ensure the machine operator’s hands are located on the control panel when the control signal for a hazardous movement is issued. Two-hand control panels thus ascertain that intervention by the operator in dangerous moving processes is avoided when a machine or plant has been started.
The areas of application include presses for metal working, powder metallurgy, printing and paper processing machines, croppers and similar, as well as machinery in the rubber, plastic and chemical industries.
