From factory automation to process automation, sensor solutions from SICK are keeping industries moving. As a technology and market leader, SICK provides sensors and application solutions that create the ideal basis for controlling processes securely and efficiently, protecting individuals from accidents, and preventing damage to the environment.
LiDAR Sensors
SICK offers a wide range of sensor devices that use time-of-flight measurement to identify, localize, and track objects. The 2D and 3D LiDAR sensors from SICK are utilized in a variety of indoor and outdoor settings, including extremely bad weather. They are used in industries, ports, airports, logistics hubs, and autonomous car navigation systems for precise localization and accident avoidance. These high-precision laser scanners automate tasks like picking, palletizing, and depalletizing as well as heavy-duty agricultural, forestry, and mining machinery navigation with forklifts and cranes.
Photoelectric Sensors
The broad selection of photoelectric sensors from SICK combines sensor intelligence with accurate optics and cutting-edge technology to produce market-leading solutions. These sensors provide the highest level of operational reliability regardless of any interference effects by utilizing the most recent SIRIC® and LED technology. Additional sensor information via IO-Link helps to cut the complexity of modern production processes.
Registration Sensors
SICK offers a wide range of contrast, markless, color, luminescence, fork and array sensors to solve this wide spectrum of demanding tasks. Typical applications are the detection of visible and non-visible marks, labels and colors at high speeds as well as the detection of small parts and precise positioning.
