The W10 photoelectric proximity sensor is a simple and intuitive sensor solution that provides the ultimate user experience. The industry’s first touchscreen display in this product category simplifies installation, configuration and maintenance. The easy navigation greatly reduces the time it takes to get the device up and running.

No matter where you integrate the W10, it will get the job done. By utilizing dynamic algorithms designed for specific use cases, it achieves high reliability with good repeatability. The sensor has a variety of operating modes and configurations so that it can be adapted to the specific application which extracts the best possible performance.

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, SICK's function for continuous threshold adaptation, TranspaTect sensors provide a cost-effective and reliable detection solution in packaging processes in the food and beverage, and pharmaceutical industries.

• Reliable detection of transparent and semitransparent objects without a reflector
• Reliable detection of objects regardless of color or surface qualities
• Freedom of machine design no mounting system for the installation of a reflector required
• Quick commissioning there is no need to mount a reflector or precisely adjust the sensor
• Machine downtime is minimized the integrated AutoAdapt function extends the time between cleanings
• Heightened productivity mechanical and chemical ruggedness due to the metal housing
• High operational safety if the background becomes contaminated, object detection will continue uninterrupted

New SureSense, from SICK, is a complete family of hybrid M18 mounting photoelectric sensors. SureSense delivers best in class photoelectric performance and includes onboard diagnostics for easy setup. SureSense ultra reliable sensor family can detect nearly any object in any environment, ensuring your machines and lines stay up and running at full capacity.

The SureSense signal strength light bar provides instant feedback on the quality of alignment, adjustment and light signal being returned from an object. This additional information allows you to quickly optimize setup to minimize the effects of vibration, object variability and more.

Redundant Receivers improve detection of shiny, glossy, and dark targets.

The W27 MultiPac sensor provides an economical option for detection of shiny, glossy, or dark targets within its foreground. It uses two redundant receiver arrays to ensure continuous detection of difficult targets such as bundled clear PET bottles. The sensing range is adjustable up to 500 mm using a simple teach button. All of this is found within a single, compact housing that virtually eliminates the need for any traditional mechanical detection method.

• Two independant receivers
• High-power LED, extreme light intensity
• Sensing distance up to 500 mm
• Fast and easy commissioning thanks to the very good visible red high-power LED

The DT50-2 Pro offers a new range of possibilities for distance measurement, including 10 m on black targets and 30 m on white, repeatability of 0.5 mm, 3,000 measurements per second, wide range of operating temperatures (-40°C to 65°C), and IP 67 rating.

The Dx50-2 sensors feature an intuitive display, saving time during installation and commissioning. The settings for speed, sensing range, and repeatability can be adjusted to suit every possible application. All of this in a compact housing!

• Measuring range up to 10 m on black targets and up to 30 m on white targets
• Output rate up to 3,000/s
• Repeatability: 0.5 mm to 5 mm
• Reliable, patented HDDM™ time-of-flight technology
• Temperatures from -40 °C to +65 °C thanks to rugged metal housing with LCD
• IO-Link, analog and switching output (three switching modes available for selection)
• Enclosure rating IP 65 and IP 6

The slim, forked shape of the WFS sensor has been specially developed for the requirements of the labeling process. The design allows the sensor to be mounted directly on the edge of a label dispenser. Difficulty in detecting the label gap is finally eliminated - the sensor's switching threshold can be taught-in while the label strip is running. This sophisticated operating concept means the sensor can be adjusted to different labels quickly, easily, and reliably. The fast response time guarantees exceptional repeat accuracy.

SICK's Safety Controllers provide straightforward, flexible and scalable solutions for the implementation of intelligent machine design. Flexi safety controllers create a modular hardware platform without the use of complex software. They are user-friendly and provide the ideal basis for easy integration of all safety control components. Their compact design makes these safety controllers optimally suited for a variety of applications.

Safety Light Curtains reliably and cost-effectively protect against access into hazardous points and areas. They range from small and compact types to extremely robust and resistant variants that withstand special ambient conditions up to the highest safety level.

SICK Safety Laser Scanners combine know-how and experience with maximum performance. Whether mobile or stationary, for area protection or access protection, indoors or outdoors – this comprehensive portfolio offers the right cost-effective package for each and every requirement. Using the time-of-flight measurement principle, the compact devices scan their surroundings and measure distances. An integrated rotating mirror allows protection areas defined by the customer to be monitored in two dimensions.
