Advantages

High productivity across the board
Whether in mechanical engineering, automotive manufacturing, intralogistics or the packaging industry: after the invention of the safety light curtain, SICK has gone one step further with the deTec, the intelligent guarding of machines and an increase in productivity. deTec, with its standardized platform and individually scalable intelligence, offers the right solution for the guarding of work hazards and entrances, as well as the separation of people and materials in automated logistics processes!The deTec is a standardized platform with individually scalable intelligent functions.

Increased productivity through Muting
From 2-signal Muting to the flexibly configurable 4-signal Muting: Safe separation of personnel and material ensures an efficient logistical process and protects personnel at the same time.
High process efficiency
The "Intelligent Restart Interlock" function ensures that the machine is restarted safely and automatically after the insertion process is completed, thus increasing machine availability.
Intelligent object pattern recognition
Rectangular objects are reliably recognized with Smart Box Detection.The solution requires no external signals or devices, saving space and costs in the machine design.
Increase efficiency with smart features
