Safety-related sensors for mobile and stationary applications
To offer customers a complete, scalable 2D LiDAR sensor portfolio, SICK is supplementing the TiM series to include safety-related sensors which satisfy performance level b: TiM-S devices. They were developed, among other things, for mobile applications such as mobile platforms, automated guided vehicles (AGVs) and mobile service robots. The sensors support localization and collision avoidance in these applications. The TiM-S devices can also be used for safety tasks in stationary applications. Equipped with the HDDM/HDDM+ measurement process, the TiM-S devices are very resistant to ambient light and reliably detect people and objects. The small sensor size and the intuitive commissioning using the SOPAS configuration software enables customized, nearly invisible sensor integration.

TiM-S AT A GLANCE
Benefits
-Coverage of large measuring ranges
-Safety-related dynamic field evaluation and raw data output combined with the newest ROS drivers enable the use of TiM-S devices in nearly any application, both mobile and stationary
-Easy commissioning with rotatable connections and accessories perfectly attuned to the sensors; only a few adjustable SOPAS software parameters are necessary for commissioning
-Certification according to ISO 13849 allows for the use of the safety-relevant 2D LiDAR sensors in personal protection applications in which performance level b is required, among others
