Speed and motion: safe and controlled

SICK presents the DFS60S Pro incremental coder, which guarantees reliable monitoring on vehicles in motion (such as AGVs).

The system’s electric and mechanical design, simplicity and flexibility make it universally applicable for motion control in industrial safety applications, both static and dynamic, guaranteeing SIL2 and PLD safety levels.
The motion detection operations require no further control technology, guaranteeing remarkable savings in time during the design process and preventing the risks typically associated with standard, non-certified solutions.
For safe onboard monitoring of mobile devices, SICK offers with the DFS60S Pro the FX3-MOC0 drive monitor, a combination which enables easily managing Safe Speed Monitor (SSM) and Safety Limited Speed (SLS) functions. The Safe Break Control and Safe Stop 1 and 2 (SS1 and SS2) functions make it possible to activate and detect emergency stops of the vehicle.
