Lamps for section illumination on the blank side

LED lights Good illumination is important to monitor the process and to make accessory exchange, job change etc. easy and safe. The LED lamp panel on the rear side of the blank side overhead panel improves the illumination of the section. The lamps are located between the sections to have overlapping light and to prevent the section from being shadowed by the operator when leaning into the section for a job change. The separate LED lamp module is powered by a 24 V integrated power supply.
