Sick Sensor

The economic standard for use in industrial environments
SICK’s inductive sensors offer precise detection, less downtime and a long service life. The inductive IME sensors pack high technology into the smallest of spaces. The integrated ASIC chip enables digital adjustment after the end of the manufacturing process.

Cylinder sensors with precise switching point for T-slot
The MZT8 cylinder sensor from SICK is the flexible solution for detecting the piston position in pneumatic actuators. The sensor can be inserted into cylinders very easily and, with the screw-and-washer assembly, tightened with just a quarter turn of a slotted screwdriver or hex key.

High-pressure-resistant sensors for hydraulic applications
The inductive, high-pressure-resistant IMP sensors are perfectly suited for the query of end positions in hydraulic cylinders.

Flat rectangular housings for use in industrial environments
When space is tight, the flat design of the IQV sensors are the best choice. Thanks to a low height, they can be easily integrated into applications where space is critical and allow a high degree of freedom when it comes to machine design.

Rugged full metal sensors for use in challenging applications
In contrast to conventional proximity sensors, whose sensing face consists of plastic, the IMI inductive proximity sensors have a closed housing made completely of stainless steel.

The simply outstanding all-rounder
The WFE is a rugged fork sensor that is simple and easy to mount. Thanks to its reliability and accurate detection, it is suitable for a large number of applications. The WFE can precisely detect objects up to a size of 0.5 mm with a high switching frequency of 5 kHz.

Slim, intelligent, intuitive to operate – universal solution for label detection
The innovative, small UFS fork sensor from SICK allows space-saving installation, for example directly on the dispensing edge of a labeling machine.

Position sensors for large pneumatic cylinders and drives
MPA position sensors continuously detect the piston position of pneumatic actuators using a direct, non-contact method. The sensors in the MPA product family are ideal for large piston diameters and long strokes.

Safe object detection at high machine speeds
The KTL180 reliably detects contrast differences even at high machine speeds. Thanks to its 31.2 kHz switching frequency, a high grayscale resolution and manual switching threshold adjustment, the KTL180 makes for safe object detection.

Reliable capacitive proximity sensors enclosed in a rectangular housing
Capacitive proximity sensors can detect all types of material: powder-based, granulated, liquid, and solid – even through plastic walls. SICK’s capacitive proximity sensors also feature high electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), which prevents incorrect switching.

Smart and rugged capacitive sensors
The CMB capacitive proximity sensors detect objects and levels regardless of color, reflectance and gloss of the surfaces. In the process, they detect powdery, granulated, liquid and solid materials – even through non-metallic walls made of plastic or glass, for example.

The sturdy light grid for many standard applications
SICK offers the versatile ELG, an extremely tough switching automation light grid with different monitoring heights and beam separations. The ELG is not sensitive to glare caused by sunlight and flashing light.

Reliable detection with extremely thin design
The smart light grid product family includes smart area sensors, smart gate sensors and smart pick-to-light-sensor light grids. At only 8 mm x 25 mm, they fit nearly anywhere and can be embedded inside walls, doors, conveyors, and machines. Slim and flat versions are available.

Position sensors with very good price-performance ratio for T-slot
The cost-effective MPS-M position sensor detects the piston position in pneumatic drives continuously and with micrometer precision without making contact. It is designed for cylinders with T-slots and can be mounted quickly, easily and securely.

Easy to install. Easy to operate. The one photoelectric proximity sensor for all applications.
The W10 photoelectric proximity sensor’s ease of use, sturdy design and performance make it ideal for precise object detection in demanding environments. The touchscreen display is intuitive to use, allowing parameters to be set quickly.

More flexibility and efficient communication
The AS30 array sensor operates on the proximity scanning principle. It detects even the slightest differences in grayscale values within the field-of-view. Positioning of, for example, a paper web based on the web edge or a contrast line is only one of many possible applications.

Rectangular miniature sensors for use in industrial environments
The IQM sensors with their rectangular miniature designs are real space-savers. Thanks to the low heights of a minimum of 4.7 mm and fully-integrated electronics, they set new standards and contribute to the miniaturization of modules and machines.

The rugged standard for use in harsh ambient conditions
The inductive IMB proximity sensor is a byword for reliability in harsh working conditions, whether it is in contact with cooling lubricants or being used outdoors.
