Pinching protection

Automatically closing doors, flaps or covers always have the danger of pinching a finger or the hand. There are systems for this which stop the movement in such a case. However, as the finger is already pinched, any reaction of the system is already too late. The pinching protection from Micro-Epsilon operates without contact and already reacts when a hand is in the vicinity.
