Safety sensor SICK safety multi-beam scanner

Improve productivity while maintaining the safety of collaborative robots!

The international safety standard for industrial robots, ISO 10218-1/-2:2025, will be revised in February 2025, with specific safety requirements for end effectors added. Safety standards for collaborative work will also apply to end effectors, requiring the design of safety control functions. In recent years, the introduction of collaborative robots that do not require safety fences has been progressing, but one method to ensure safety around the robot is to install safety laser scanners. In the case of conventional safety laser scanners, challenges arise such as "the robot stops when entering a danger area, reducing productivity" and "the safety area expands during high-speed robot operation," which has created barriers to labor-saving technologies. Therefore, by installing the "SICK scanGrid2" on the end effector of your currently used collaborative robot, it is possible to reduce the robot's deceleration and stop time while implementing safety measures, thereby improving productivity! We can also provide a dedicated mounting bracket for the "SICK scanGrid2" tailored to the model of robot you are using, so please consider it!
