1. Collision Prevention for Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs)
In factories using AGVs to transport materials, safety and accuracy are critical. The SICK S30B-3011CA continuously scans a wide 270° field to detect obstacles or people within its 3-meter protective range. When motion is detected, it signals the AGV to slow down or stop instantly, preventing collisions. The scanner’s small form and durable housing allow seamless installation on mobile robots that operate close to workers, ensuring consistent safety without sacrificing transport speed or efficiency.
2. Robot Work Cell Protection and Human Detection
Robotic assembly areas often require technicians to perform setup or maintenance nearby. The S30B-3011CA creates layered safety fields around robot stations, automatically pausing motion when a person enters the monitored area. Its rapid 80 ms response and configurable zones make it adaptable for different robot layouts. This flexible protection approach minimizes downtime and allows operators to work safely around robots while maintaining high productivity and meeting global machine safety requirements.
3. Conveyor Line Hazard Prevention
Automated conveyors move goods rapidly through packaging and inspection lines, where accidents can occur if an object or worker enters a danger zone. The S30B-3011CA monitors these zones in real time, stopping machinery the moment an obstruction is detected. Its IP65-rated enclosure withstands vibration and dust, while the adjustable resolution ensures even small items are accurately sensed. This helps reduce production interruptions, protects personnel, and maintains smooth material handling throughout the system.
4. Access Control in Warehouse and Loading Operations
In dynamic warehouse environments, forklifts and staff often move through shared pathways. The S30B-3011CA establishes flexible detection zones that track both human and vehicle motion across entrances and loading areas. When unsafe movement occurs, it can trigger alarms or halt operations to avoid accidents. The combination of wide coverage, precise scanning, and reliable performance makes it an effective safety measure for busy logistics centers, keeping operations efficient while maintaining full worker protection.
