Ultra-compact

SICK's ultra-compact new S300 Mini laser scanner claims superior versatility and reliability for standalone or complex, multi sensor safety configurations. Suitable for both moving and static applications, its size and functionality make it a viable single unit replacement for common multi-component set-ups or barriers such as safety mats which are subject to wear.

Seb Strutt, safety specialist SICK (UK), says: "It is available in two models: firstly as the Standard, single sensor unit, which brings high technology to applications requiring lower cost solutions, for example vertical or horizontal protection in packaging machines and materials handling. The second, Remote model is for more complex applications requiring multiple field switching such as automated and self guided vehicles."
