Industrial Scanners
Industrial Scanners
The vision scanners offered by SICK are advanced solutions designed for industrial use, providing reliability, accuracy, and exceptional precision even in the most demanding conditions. SICK, as a leader in automatic identification and vision technologies, offers products that perform excellently in industrial production, warehousing, and logistics environments.
These scanners are built to withstand harsh working conditions such as dust, moisture, vibrations, and extreme temperatures. Thanks to advanced optical technology and precise calibration, SICK devices ensure reliable barcode reading and enable product recognition and control on production lines. They are also highly resistant to mechanical damage, making them ideal for industrial automation processes.
Industrial Scanners – New 2D and 3D Vision Solutions
Industrial scanners (also called vision scanners) acquire information from the environment and process it to facilitate decision-making. Their operation is similar to the human sense of sight – observing the surroundings and then analyzing information to decide on subsequent actions. These solutions are increasingly used for analyzing object position and assessing colors or shapes (e.g., during quality control of manufactured components). Thanks to modern industrial scanners, we can also perform faster and more efficient measurements of specific parts of an object.
We offer our clients vision scanners from SICK, a company specializing for years in creating advanced industrial vision systems tailored to business needs. These systems are easy to configure and customize thanks to the dedicated SICK AppSpace application, mainly used in quality control processes, robot motion control, and shipment tracking. Among the most popular SICK vision systems are Intelligent Inspection (a 2D vision system based on Deep Learning), Quality Inspection (quality control system), Color Inspection and Sorting (color and size inspection system), Pinspector 2D (system checking presence and position of pins), and Presence Inspection (presence control system).
Applications of Industrial Scanners in Various Industries
Industrial scanners aim to improve work quality and efficiency while contributing to the automation of production processes. These modern devices are helping usher in Industry 4.0, where human intervention in production will no longer be necessary, and AI will manage operations. Industrial scanners are already widely used across many industry sectors.
For example, on production floors, they systematically verify component correctness, check differences between consecutive product batches, and assess bottle fill levels and packaging closure. Modern industrial scanners are also excellent for 1D and 2D barcode inspection, counting, and product dimension measurement (often used for package size verification or self-checkout in supermarkets). In the automotive industry, they control correct assembly of components to reduce defective parts production. In pharmaceuticals, vision scanners verify product compliance with necessary standards and proper packaging.
