The Safety light-beam sensors safely monitor access points over large distances. Their standardized and compact housing allows fast commissioning. Performing diagnostics is also easy. The safe human-material differentiation assists the material flow, which in turn ensures fewer downtimes and smooth processes – even in harsh ambient conditions. Free choice of space for the safety: Mirror columns from SICK are used in applications where protection of hazardous points, e.g. machining centres, on several sides is required. The combination of multiple light beam safety devices with mirror columns used for beam deflection is the right solution here. Since multiple sides of a machine can be protected with a single pair of sensors devices, the overall wiring is reduced.

The deflector mirrors can be easily adjusted in the rugged columns. Unhindered access for loading and changing tools and programs is a further advantage of using deflector mirrors over mechanical fencing and leads to increased productivity.
