Analog Positioning Sensors
-
Versatile, precise, superior – analog positioning sensors by SICKFor many tasks that use pneumatic cylinders, it is important to determine more than just the individual piston positions. As a result, there is an increasing demand for sensors that provide continuous feedback. This allows challenging automation tasks to be solved without having to use expensive linear motors. SICK is able to meet these demands with its analog positioning sensors. These sensors, which provide a measuring range of up to 1,007 mm, combine flexibility, simple operation and high precision.

In-situ Gas Analyzers
-
Real-time gas analysis directly within the processInnovative measurement technology that allows the devices to be mounted directly at the measurement site: In-situ gas analyzers take measurements directly within the process under system conditions. These analyzers are primarily characterized by their minimal maintenance requirements and extremely short response times. SICK's in-situ gas analyzers are available in two different versions:The cross-duct version for representative measurement results across the entire duct diameterThe measuring probe version, optimized for single-sided gas duct installation

Robot Guidance Systems
-
Robot guidance using 3D vision systems designed for object localization is making a vital contribution to the optimization of industrial manufacturing processes. Robot guidance systems from SICK give users an easy, economical way to benefit from this sophisticated technology. The systems stand out thanks to their reliable, user-friendly design. They can be integrated without difficulty in existing environments, deliver high-precision measurement results and consequently play a key role in making part handling more versatile than ever before.

Distance Sensors
-
SICK has a wide range of optic and ultrasonic solutions that measure from sub-microns to kilometers. They solve measuring, detecting and positioning applications using triangulation and time-of-flight modes. Sensors using triangulation are ideal for short-range, highly precise measurement. They can inspect miniature parts, thickness and shape, etc. Time-of-flight sensors work at longer distances, are not influenced by reflectivity or ambient light − perfect for positioning AS/RS, rail cars and gantry cranes.

Scattered Light Dust Measuring Devices
-
The reliable way to detect low dust concentrationsLight scattering by dust particles is a measurement principle that allows even very low concentrations of dust to be detected. Depending on the system-specific requirements, either forward scattering or backward scattering can be used in this context. Both measurement principles return stable and reproducible measurement results, regardless of the gas velocity, humidity, or dust particle charges.

Flow Sensors
-
Rugged and precise – flow measurement technology from SICKSICK provides innovative sensor solutions for flow measurement technology which combine flexible measuring methods and rugged equipment design with cost-efficient connection concepts to integrate higher-level systems. Whether you need to detect the current flow rate value using analog values or find the quantity using pulse detection – SICKs flow sensors are always reliable and safe and can work with a wide range of media under difficult process and ambient conditions.

Product
Fork Sensors
-
Fork sensors, which operate using a through-beam design, combine the sender and receiver in a single housing. As a result, alignment is no longer time-consuming. Even very slight differences in light attenuation are detected due to highly focused light emission and high detection accuracy. Easy installation, high immunity to ambient light, and a wide range of fork widths are some of the many advantages that SICK fork sensors offer. Applications include detecting labels or parts on conveyors.

Product
Array Sensors
-
Array sensors use closely spaced beams of light to detect even the slightest differences in gray scale between the target and the background within their field-of-view. They are ideal for edge and diameter detection as well as detecting widths and gaps. SICK’s array sensors offer industry-leading reproducibility, in addition to compact, rugged metal housings for use in highly restricted or harsh environments.

2D Vision
-
SICK offers a powerful vision sensor portfolio designed to manage challenges in all industries where a standard sensor would not work. These vision sensors provide a full toolset for positioning, inspection, measurement and reading, depending on the variant. A flexible optical design fulfills the needs of almost all applications. Simplicity is ensured by automatic setup, intelligent algorithms and a common, intuitive user interface.

Capacitive Proximity Sensors
-
Liquids, granulates, glass, powder, wood and more – capacitive sensors detect almost any object by non-contact means, regardless of color, reflection factor, and surface characteristics.

Gas Transmitters
-
Simple, fast, and low maintenanceWhen it comes to creating gas analyzers that can serve as field instruments, gas transmitters are the logical next step. However, compared to the former, a gas transmitter requires barely any additional technical aids to perform the measurement task. In many cases, there is no need for costly sampling and gas conditioning either.

Product
Contrast Sensors
-
Contrast sensors are primarily used in packaging/printing machines for the detection of printed or control marks. SICK's line of KT contrast sensors detects even the smallest contrasts at the highest speeds, such as print marks on foils or packaging. They detect minute grayscale variations between the mark and the background on matte, shiny or transparent surfaces. A variety of device types with different contrast resolution methods and teach-in versions are available to meet wide-ranging requirements.

Process Solutions
-
Industrial processes and systems vary widely depending on the nature of the production method involved. In turn, this means that the associated measurement tasks and process-related requirements differ a great deal as well. SICK provides solutions and complete systems based on its extensive experience within the field of process measurement technology.
