Pioneering Safety for Modern Automation As industrial automation evolves, so do the demands on machine safety systems. In an environment where uptime, e ciency, and compliance must align, safety solutions can no longer be seen as add-ons. They must be intelligent, fully integrated, and network-ready. That’s where EUCHNER’s MGB2 Modular guard locking system sets the standard. With the latest addition of EtherNet/IP with CIP Safety connectivity, the MGB2 now supports all major eldbus protocols, including PROFINET/PROFIsafe and EtherCAT (P)/FSoE, making it one of the most adaptable and future-ready safety solutions available. Modular Design. Scalable Safety. The MGB2 isn’t a one-size-ts-all solution. Its strength lies in its modularity, built around a rugged locking module, congurable control submodules, and the MBM bus module for seamless integration into your networked control architecture. Each locking module can be populated with submodules oering a range of functions: pushbuttons, selector switches, emergency stop devices, LED indicators, and the CKS2 RFIDcoded key submodule for secure access. This exible design makes the MGB2 suitable for everything from compact single-door stations to complex, multi-door safety networks. Installation remains quick and intuitive thanks to standardised interfaces and plug-in components, helping integrators reduce engineering time and ensure consistency across applications. Now Supporting EtherNet/IP with CIP Safety The introduction of CIP Safety over EtherNet/IP enables deeper integration into a wide range of industrial environments. It ensures compatibility with leading automation platforms and brings robust, certied safety communication into the MGB2 ecosystem. The MBM bus module serves as the intelligence centre of the system, aggregating inputs from connected submodules and transferring it securely over EtherNet/IP. This ensures safe, real-time communication and enables secure access to safeguarded areas, even during high- risk or complex operations. By embedding SMART Ethernet-based safety protocols into its design, the MGB2 helps users reduce wiring complexity, simplify diagnostics, and meet the most current industrial safety communication standards. Real-Time Diagnostics and System Transparency A standout feature of the MGB2 is its advanced diagnostic capability. All system data, such as lock status, submodule input, or fault signals, is available directly via the network or through the EUCHNER expands the MGB2 Modular platform to support all major eldbus protocols The Ultimate in Guard Locking – Now with CIP Safety on EtherNet/IP COVER STORY ZZZ HXFKQHU FR XN VDOHV#HXFKQHU FR XN 6PDUW 6DIHW\ IRU ,QWUDORJLVWLFV 3URWHFW SHRSOH UHGXFH GRZQWLPH DQG VLPSOLI\ DFFHVV ZLWK 5),' DFFHVV VPDUW LQWHUORFNV VDIHW\ QHWZRUNV OLJKW FXUWDLQV DQG PRUH 6FDODEOH VDIHW\ EXLOW IRU IDVW PRYLQJ HQYLURQPHQWV
