One thing is clear - no reflector needed

Thanks to new technologies from SICK, TranspaTect MultiTask photoelectric sensors are now able to detect transparent and semitransparent trays and bottles without the need for reflectors, a frequent source of errors

In these applications, the reference surface is provided by a stable matte background. Sensitivity is taught in simply by pressing the teach-in button. Even high-gloss, reflective, or uneven surfaces can be detected reliably. Combined with AutoAdapt, SICKs function for continuous threshold adaptation, TranspaTect sensors provide a cost-effective and reliable detection solution in packaging processes in the food and beverage, and pharmaceuticals industries.

NEW: laser distance sensor by SICK

The Profiler™ 2 short range distance sensor performs highly accurate measurements on the x and z axes and can also measure the surface of more complex objects

Up to four areas can be analyzed at the same time with a single measurement. One of the 10 integrated measurement functions, e.g., height or width, can be selected for each area. The integrated evaluation unit of the Profiler™ 2 saves you time and money when it comes to installation – making the sensor one of the most cost-effective solutions for profile measurement. Whi...

NEW: electronic pressure switch by SICK

For improved monitoring of air pressure, the PAC50 electronic pressure switch from SICK offers more at a glance – the large bi-color display allows you to identify from a distance if the pressure falls within the target range. Three large function keys and intuitive menu navigation make operating the PAC50 easy.

What makes the PAC50 so special? It offers up to two digital switching outputs and an optional analog output in just one device. The output signals can be easily adjusted to the available control system. Thanks to the optional IO-Link, the controller or PLC can quickly and accurately pass the device parameters to the sensor when changing the format or replacing the senso...

NEW: tunnel visibility sensor by SICK

The VISIC50SF smoke detector offers high-speed measurement to ensure fast and reliable smoke detection when tunnel fires occur

The VISIC50SF is very easy to mount, operate and maintain. Measurement starts immediately: No alignment or configuration is needed. An enclosure rating of IP 6K9K means the VISIC50SF can withstand not only harsh environmental conditions, but also washing procedures. During the design phase, particular importance was placed on ensuring reliable operation and long maintena...
