The Applications
1. Object Detection Inside High-Temperature Industrial Furnaces
Industrial furnaces used for heat treatment, ceramics, or material conditioning expose sensors to extreme temperatures that quickly damage conventional photoelectric devices. The SICK LISAT32900 is well suited for these environments because its fiber-optic sensing head withstands intense heat while the amplifier is installed outside the hot zone. The glass fiber maintains stable light transmission, and the stainless-steel jacket protects against thermal stress and vibration. This allows reliable detection of trays, carriers, or components moving through the furnace. As a result, manufacturers achieve consistent process timing, fewer sensor failures, and improved production continuity.
2. Hot Metal Detection in Steel and Aluminum Processing Lines
Steel and aluminum production lines involve glowing materials, scale, and mechanical shock that challenge standard sensors. The SICK LISAT32900 enables accurate detection of hot billets, slabs, or sheets as they move between rolling, cutting, or cooling stages. Its through-beam sensing principle ensures consistent detection regardless of surface brightness or oxidation. The stainless-steel fiber jacket resists abrasion and mechanical impact, while the high temperature tolerance prevents signal drift. This helps synchronize automated actions, reduce scrap, and maintain stable operation in demanding metallurgical environments.
3. Position Monitoring Near Heat-Sealing and Thermal Packaging Equipment
Heat-sealing and thermal packaging machines operate in confined spaces close to heated jaws and tooling. The SICK LISAT32900 is ideal for detecting product presence or monitoring mechanical positions in these zones. Its compact fiber design and small bending radius allow easy routing through tight machine frames. The glass fiber maintains detection accuracy despite continuous heat exposure, while the remote electronics avoid thermal damage. This improves sealing accuracy, reduces product misfeeds, and minimizes downtime caused by sensor-related faults in high-speed packaging operations.
4. Reliable Detection in Glass Manufacturing and Annealing Processes
Glass forming and annealing lines expose sensors to sustained heat, vibration, and airborne contaminants. The SICK LISAT32900 provides dependable detection of glass sheets, containers, or transport carriers throughout these stages. Its fiber-optic construction isolates sensitive electronics from harsh conditions, while the stainless-steel jacket ensures long service life. Stable detection enables precise process coordination, reducing breakage and improving yield. By maintaining performance where standard sensors degrade, the LISAT32900 supports consistent quality and operational efficiency in demanding glass production environments.
