Safety Laser Scanners

Safety Laser Scanners

As the industry\'s leader, SICK has been manufacturing and selling safety laser scanners for more than 10 years. These safety devices monitor hazardous areas for unwanted intrusions by persons or objects. Safety scanners combine a pulsed, eye-safe infrared laser and time-of-flight technology to precisely calculate the location of any detected person or object. This location is then compared with the adaptable Safety and Warning Zones, predefined with the device. If the person or object is present inside the Warning Zone, audible and visible signals can be triggered. If intrusion of the Safety Zone occurs, the scanner promptly sends a stop signal to the hazardous equipment. Safety scanners are used as either the primary or supplementary means e.g. in addition to light curtains or fences) of safeguarding an area.

While some applications require safeguarding only at the point of operation or around the perimeter of a hazardous workspace, often an application calls for safeguarding all points within the perimeter. Area safeguarding products can easily protect both personnel and equipment within these large, irregularly shaped areas. Of all the available safeguarding solutions, a safety laser scanner is the only option with the range and flexibility to protect personnel from hazardous work areas. If the work environment is dirty, slippery or crowded with limited space, SICK\'s non-contact, robust safety laser scanners are the best choice.
