SICK has launched the safeVisionary2, the world’s first compact 3D time-of-flight camera with safety certification performance level c, in accordance with ISO 13849.
SICK has expanded its proven, non-contact magnetostrictive linear encoder portfolio with the launch of a versatile product family for wide-ranging industrial applications.
An innovative design concept has opened up versatile integration possibilities for the DGS80 across wide-ranging industrial automation applications, aided by a radically-streamlined specification process and easy installation.
SICK has launched its next-generation OD2000 distance sensor, combining high-precision reliability with outstanding economy to deliver a versatile ‘all-rounder’ for multiple applications in factory automation and intralogistics.
SICK has launched its next generation, intelligent and powerful WLL80 Fibre Optic Sensors, designed for easy configuration and highly-versatile integration into machinery and conveyor systems wherever rapid, high accuracy detection is required in confined spaces.
SICK has developed a versatile and easy to install Roller Sensor Bar to tackle common conveyor downtime headaches for operators in wide-ranging materials handling, parcel sorting or logistics hubs.
“We Create Digital Transformation” – this is the central theme under which SICK will be presenting its comprehensive range of solutions in the areas of robotics and smart data solutions at the Automatica 2022 trade fair from June 21 – 24 in Munich.
A digital service that gives instant visibility to filling levels in packaging machinery has been developed by SICK in collaboration with industry end-users. SICK Filling Level Monitoring avoids machine stoppages by giving real-time data to operators via smartwatch or phone, so that levels of carton blanks, adhesive or film wraps, for example, stay topped up.
SICK, the global sensor manufacturer, has developed a super-tough radar sensor for collision avoidance duties in even the most extreme weather or harsh industrial conditions.
