SICK heaps up the 'marginal gains' at PPMA 2018
19 September 2018
Visitors to the SICK UK stand at PPMA (A26) will learn how technology developments in smart sensors and machinery safety systems can release latent productivity benefits that help engineers to aggregate ‘marginal gains’ and achieve significant yields in efficiency, throughput and reduced waste.
SICK will be showcasing its 2D and 3D vision sensors, as well as its comprehensive range of Auto-Identification solutions for coding and labelling to demonstrate how high-performance detection, quality inspection and traceability are meeting the challenges of increasingly flexible and digitally-connected production environments.
Solutions on display include the SICK LabelChecker, an ‘off-the-shelf’ label inspection solution, and the SICK Inline Code Matcher ‘right product, right packaging’ quality control system. Visitors can also learn how SICK’s diverse range of registration sensors yield efficiency advantages through reliable detection and control of packaging processes. From contrast to colour and luminescence, no substrate however shiny, matt, dark or uneven is a challenge too far for SICK.
If you need machinery safety that protects employees whilst enabling them to work faster with less downtime and in more effective collaboration with the machines they are operating, see SICK’s safety laser scanners, safety light curtains and Flexi-Soft safety control systems.
SICK will also be demonstrating how its level, pressure, flow and temperature sensors realise optimised processes though accurate measurement and control.
