Innovation And Safety In Automation Are Priorities
Rayflex, a leader in innovations for industrial environments, highlights the importance of innovation, ‘no touch’ systems, and employee safety as the three essential pillars for effective industrial automation. In a world where 91% of companies are seeking process automation, according to a Salesforce study in 2023, and with the growing trend of Robotic Process Automation (RPA) in Latin America, Rayflex positions itself as a reference in the market, offering cutting-edge solutions.
For Rayflex, ensuring safety and efficiency in industrial processes is fundamental, especially in sectors that require strict hygiene and quality control standards. Giordania R. Tavares, the company’s CEO, with over two decades of experience, emphasizes the importance of effective isolation between environments to maintain these standards, highlighting the efficiency of automated and well-sealed entry and exit systems.
Innovation As A Driver Of The Economy
Firstly, Rayflex focuses on innovation as a synonym for savings in the industry. The installation of automatic high-speed doors in place of conventional ones marks a significant advancement in automation. One of the benefits highlighted by Giordania is the self-repairing characteristic of these doors, which allows for immediate resumption of operations after collisions, without human intervention. This functionality not only saves time but also reduces energy costs, keeping internal temperatures controlled and decreasing the demand for cooling.

He has never read a line of code, but he already knows how to work: the French company UMA presented in Paris the Northstar, its first AI-powered humanoid robot designed for factories and warehouses, capable of copying tasks just by observing an employee in action.
‘No Touch’ Technology For Greater Hygiene
Another crucial aspect of Rayflex’s automation strategy is the ‘no touch’ system, which minimizes the risks of contamination and promotes greater hygiene. This system is ideal for avoiding hand contact in the opening and closing of doors, functioning as sanitary barriers between clean and contaminated environments. The technologies used include floor sensors, motion radar, and ‘no touch’ push buttons, which require only a gesture to activate the doors, eliminating the need for physical contact.
Employee Safety In Focus
Employee safety is another key point highlighted by Rayflex. In industrial environments, especially in the automotive industry, interaction with robots can pose risks of injury. Rayflex’s solution to this issue is the implementation of Safety Windows, which restrict human access during machine operation. These windows, customized for each environment, are designed for numerous openings and closings, ensuring safety and care for all involved in the production chain.
