Next Generation Technology from SICK

SICK, Inc.: CLV 6xx Series Barcode Scanners

SICK is pleased to announce the new CLV62X and CLV63X Laser Bar Code Scanners. These are the first scanner models released from the next generation CLV6XX Bar Code Scanner platform - a family of scanners that offers high-end scanner capability in a compact housing and easy-to-use programming software.

Speed, power, flexibility and ease of use are the features that define the new CLV6XX Laser Bar Code family. All of the scanners in the CLV6XX family have both on board serial and Ethernet communication versions. Other advanced features, like package tracking with encoder input and an IP 65 enclosure rating, give this new scanner platform the high-end features usually expected in scanners two to three times the cost. A 1200 Hz real-time decoding allows the scanner to read codes in excess of 50 per second In addition, it also has the ability to read damaged and obscured codes at high speeds using SMART (SICK Modular Advanced Recognition Technology). Finally, the increased intelligence of the scanner allows for complex, PLC-like programming flexibility. Whether it is the comparison of up to 48 match-codes, nested if-else statements or flexible output string construction, the CLV620 is up to the task and ready for high-end scanner performance in a compact, light-weight housing.

SICK, Inc.: HLG - High-Speed, High-Resolution Light Grid

SICK is pleased to present the HLG family of light grid sensors. With high resolution and fast switching speeds, the HLG is a perfect addition to the versatile array of light grid solutions from SICK.

The HLG is similar to the ELG light grids, but with much higher resolution, resulting in a minimum detectable object (MDO) size of 2 mm. Both the ELG and new HLG Light Grids are through-beam style switching light grids. The HLG provides a fast and reliable switching output any time one of the beams is blocked.

SICK, Inc.: WF Next - Fork Sensor in All Shapes and Sizes

Modern labeling machines are confronted with countless styles of label materials and surface variants. SICK is launching the WF Next line of optical fork sensors to meet these challenges. In the past, the fork sensor product offering was limited. The WF Next line offers more than 40 fork sensors with a huge selection of fork widths and depths to fit any application. These sensors augment SICK's extensive line of contrast, luminescent and color sensors specifically designed for the packaging and printing industries. Using these products has never been simpler, thanks to manual adjustment or "static teach-in" options.

The WF Next line replaces the older WF3T/ WF5T Sensors. The sensor line includes fork widths of 2 mm, 4 mm, 15 mm, 30 mm, 50 mm, 80 mm and 120 mm with fork depths of 40 mm, 60 mm and 95 mm to solve most tough applications. All sensors feature PNP or NPN wiring configurations with a quick disconnect 4-pin M8 connector for ease of installation. A full compliment of manual adjustment and teach-in models is available.
