Perimeter Guarding

Strengthen Safety Around Automation Zones

In automated environments, perimeter guarding isn’t just about physical barriers—it’s about intelligent sensing that helps prevent intrusion into hazardous zones. Miller Edge develops pressure-sensitive and non-contact sensors that signal machines to stop or trigger alerts when a perimeter is crossed, enabling fast response and added peace of mind.

Whether you’re working to define safe zones around robotic systems, separate pedestrian paths from active machinery, or monitor entry to restricted areas, our configurable solutions help reduce injury risk, downtime, and liability.

Common Applications

  • Sensor-activated buffers around robotic work zones
  • Access alerts near high-speed or high-voltage equipment
  • Entry detection for restricted or automated areas

How Sensing Edges Work

Access Control

Intelligent motion sensors that send signals to control systems—ideal for managing movement near restricted or hazardous zones.

Ideal for: Entry detection, traffic monitoring, and non-contact activation

  • Smart sensing technologies detect approaching, departing, and cross-traffic vehicles and/or pedestrians
  • Integrates with control systems to initiate or interrupt motor operation, activate alarms, or trigger lights
  • Adjustable detection zones for tailored coverage
  • Enhances awareness and workflow efficiency in busy or hazardous areas
