Product Description

SICK SGS4-S108P7PC1T00 Automation Light Grid – High-Precision Parallel Beam Detection

The SICK SGS4-S108P7PC1T00 automation light grid is designed to deliver dependable object detection across a tall monitoring area, making it ideal for automated handling systems. Its slim structure and parallel-beam arrangement provide consistent detection performance without requiring bulky mounting space. With a detection height of 1,080 mm and a beam layout engineered for mid-sized object recognition, it solves common challenges found in conveyor, packaging, and logistics environments. The unit installs quickly using a simple Teach-in method and maintains reliable operation in demanding industrial settings, supporting continuous workflow efficiency.

Engineered for stable performance, the SGS4-S108P7PC1T00 uses infrared beams to create a uniform detection field suitable for counting, presence sensing, and zone monitoring. Its narrow housing allows it to integrate neatly into machines where space is limited, while the fast response ensures dependable detection in dynamic processes. Industrial durability—including resistance to shock, vibration, and strong ambient lighting—helps the sensor stay accurate even when environmental conditions fluctuate. The optical synchronization system simplifies setup by reducing wiring needs, while the sensor’s consistent output helps maintain productivity and reduces downtime across automated production lines.

Why SICK SGS4-S108P7PC1T00?

The SGS4-S108P7PC1T00 stands out for its slim, lightweight design that fits where most light grids cannot. It delivers reliable vertical area monitoring with minimal setup, making it a favorite for modern automated lines. Fast response, stable detection, and simple Teach-in configuration make it a powerful upgrade for any system that demands accuracy without complexity.

What problem does it solve?

This model eliminates missed detections in tall or rapidly moving conveyor zones, where traditional sensors struggle. Its evenly spaced infrared beams create a consistent detection curtain that captures objects reliably, even when lighting, vibration, or line speeds vary. It solves the real-world need for dependable sensing in busy industrial environments where downtime is not an option.

The Applications for SICK SGS4-S108P7PC1T00 Automation Light Grid

1. Conveyor Package Profiling for High-Speed Sorting

In distribution centers where packages vary widely in size and orientation, reliable detection is essential to prevent sorting mistakes. The SGS4-S108P7PC1T00 creates a tall, consistent sensing curtain that can detect boxes, bags, and irregular items moving at high conveyor speeds. This helps ensure that no object is missed, even when items are stacked closely or pass through quickly. Its strong resistance to bright lighting prevents disturbance from overhead lamps or sunlight exposure. With a slim housing that fits alongside conveyor rails, the light grid supports continuous package flow, improves tracking accuracy, and reduces manual intervention in automated sorting lines.

2. Component Presence Check in Robotic Assembly Stations

Robotic assembly processes depend on confirming whether parts are correctly positioned before the next motion occurs. Smaller sensors may overlook components that vary in shape, while cameras can be unnecessary for simple verification tasks. The SGS4-S108P7PC1T00 forms a vertical detection field that reliably identifies components entering or leaving a station, regardless of how they are oriented. Its quick response ensures timing accuracy during fast assembly cycles, while the compact form factor makes installation easy inside crowded automation stations. This stable detection reduces misfeeds, helps prevent assembly errors, and supports smooth robotic workflow without relying on complex vision systems.

3. Pallet Detection and Alignment Control in Warehousing

Automated pallet systems require dependable confirmation that loads are present and correctly positioned before movement begins. When pallets are misaligned or incomplete, mechanical issues or operational delays may occur. The SGS4-S108P7PC1T00 provides a tall detection field capable of identifying pallets of varying heights and contents. Its infrared beams remain effective in dusty or reflective environments often found in warehouses. The light grid’s narrow footprint allows it to be mounted on conveyor frames without major modifications. With stable, repeatable detection, warehouse control systems can prevent incorrect pallet transfers and maintain smoother, safer material movement through automated storage areas.

4. Workpiece Verification for Cutting and Processing Equipment

Industrial cutting and shaping machines must confirm that a workpiece is truly in place before a cycle starts. Contact switches may fail over time, and narrow-beam sensors cannot monitor a broad area. The SGS4-S108P7PC1T00 forms a tall, uninterrupted sensing field that verifies material presence across the full required height. This reduces the chance of empty-cycle activation that could damage tooling or reduce efficiency. Its rapid readiness and fast detection benefit machines that operate in frequent start–stop patterns. With vibration-resistant performance, the light grid maintains consistent readings even on equipment subject to mechanical movement, ensuring safer, more reliable processing operations.
