The Auto Door Opener uses an air cylinder to operate the door by using either a Manual Push Button or the Automatic “Smart System” can be interfaced with the machine’s or robot's control. These systems are furnished with a door mounted safety stop that will quickly exhaust air if any obstruction is encountered during door closure, and the “Open Door” commands are ignored if spindle or chuck is running. The Auto Door Opener is one step in automating your machinery to get more parts out the door.
