Solutions for Mobile Platforms –Modular + scaleable = flexible

FULLY ADAPTABLE. FROM BASIC TO HIGH-END SOLUTIONS.


Mobile applications–wide array of sensor possibilities


Robotic applications–wide array of sensor possibilities

Robot VisionRobot Vision refers to optical and image-based systems that turn the robot into a seeing participant and allow it to identify where something is located.These systems enable flexible automation in the area of Industry 4.0.

Safe RoboticsSafe Robotics solutions ensure the safety of people and include all measures that turn the sensitive area close to the robot into a safe workspace.

End-of-Arm ToolingIn the area of End-of-Arm Tooling, SICK offers sensors that are designed specifically for grippers and robot tools, enabling them to work with fingertip precision.

Position FeedbackWith Position Feedback solutions from SICK, the motor feedback systems integrated in the drives deliver data on speed and position as well as on the condition of the drive. They thereby create the sensory foundation for all robot movements.


Mobile & Robotic applications–safety considerations

Benefit: Optimize human safety Simplify design &

complianceWhile:

Maximize speed & payload Minimizing footprint Minimizing downtime
