The rugged standard for use in harsh ambient conditions
The inductive IMB proximity sensor is a byword for reliability in harsh working conditions, whether it is in contact with cooling lubricants or being used outdoors.

Zero pressure accumulation made easy
Just as traffic lights regulate the flow of traffic in towns and cities, SICK's ZoneControl solutions control the flow of products on a belt – without the need for a PLC or another type of external control. ZoneControl by SICK consists of three product families to control the flow of products.

Precise miniature photoelectric sensors for use in tight installation spaces
Miniature photoelectric sensors of the W2 product family combine precise object detection with high operational safety. The powerful optics of the W2 feature an outstanding size-to-sensing range ratio. This means it can even detect jet-black objects precisely.
