Safe intralogistics

With complete sensor solutions for semi-automated industrial trucks, automated guided vehicles (AGVs) and autonomous mobile robots, Sick is also underlining its expertise in intralogistics applications.

The complete sensor solutions for driverless transport vehicles and mobile platforms cover all aspects of personal safety, localization and collision avoidance as well as the handling and identification of transport loads.

The focus is on integrated systems that cover all aspects of personal safety, localization and collision avoidance as well as the handling and identification of transport loads. Safe encoders and safe non-contact limit switches monitor the speed as well as the current and maximum permissible steering angle of the vehicles. Safety laser scanners with individually programmable protective fields detect people and obstacles on the routes and slow the vehicle down to a safe stop. 360-degree all-round protection can be set up with just two safety laser scanners.

They are coordinated by a modular safety controller, which merges the signals from the safe encoders, 2D lidar sensors, limit switches and emergency stop buttons, thus enabling situation-dependent person detection. The safety technology can be configured individually for each vehicle type and each application. pb
