Taking place at the Salt Palace Convention Center in Salt Lake City, UT, the IDAExpo is the annual industry education and product showcase, featuring the latest products, technology, and networking opportunities. This event draws manufacturers, suppliers and dealers from all over the world.

Optex will showcase the OAM-EXPLORER as activation and supplemental safety sensor for industrial door applications. Optex optimizes the working environment by improving the safety and eco-efficiency of industrial doors used in factories and warehouses where forklifts and workers coexist, by applying the sensing technology cultivated in the global automatic door market.

Many facilities such as factories and warehouses have installed high-speed open-close doors made from lightweight materials to improve the efficiency of conveying items, and to make better use of the air conditioning at delivery entrances and between work areas. Factory floor workers and vehicles such as forklifts for conveying packages and other cargo frequently intersect in the areas around where the doors open and close. So there is a need for measures to further ensure the safety of workers there, such as making sure there are no accidents involving humans and these vehicles. Such measures must not only facilitate the smooth distribution of cargo, but also boost energy and air conditioning efficiency by eliminating the unnecessary opening and closing of doors, as well as improve sanitary management by reducing the mistaken inclusion of foreign objects. Optex has a proven track record in industrial door sensors in the domestic market, and expertise in entrance products used worldwide that we have acquired in our automatic door sensor business. With this solid base, we have developed a product that provides both safety and environmental efficiency.
