The Applications
1. Guard Safety in High-Speed Packaging Lines
In fast-moving packaging systems, access panels often open for material loading and routine checks. The SICK RE13-SA64 is ideal for monitoring these guard doors, maintaining protection without mechanical contact. Its magnetic sensing technology tolerates minor door misalignments caused by vibration, preventing unwanted shutdowns. The switch’s IP67 housing keeps it protected from dust and humidity, ensuring continuous operation in dynamic environments where precision and reliability are vital to maintaining productivity.
2. Robotic Workcell Access Control in Automotive Assembly
Automated robotic cells demand precise safety control to prevent hazardous motion during maintenance. The RE13-SA64 ensures each door or hatch is properly secured before a robot begins operation. Its magnetic activation design eliminates mechanical wear, supporting long-term stability under repetitive cycles. Even when the door alignment shifts slightly due to vibration or heat expansion, the 20 mm assured switch-off distance guarantees consistent protection, allowing engineers to maintain safety without constant recalibration.
3. Hygienic Equipment Safety in Food Processing Lines
Food production facilities require reliable safety components that can endure moisture, cleaning agents, and temperature variation. The RE13-SA64 performs effectively in such wet and sanitary environments, monitoring access to mixers and conveyor guards. Its sealed VISTAL® housing and non-contact design prevent contamination while resisting corrosion. The switch provides long-lasting operation despite frequent washdowns, ensuring hygienic compliance while maintaining operational continuity in production lines that cannot afford extended downtime.
4. Conveyor Gate Control in Automated Warehouses
Automated warehouses rely on safety systems that react instantly to human access near moving conveyors. The RE13-SA64 is installed at conveyor gates to detect any unauthorized or accidental openings. Its five-direction sensing capability allows easy installation even in narrow or complex layouts. When a gate opens, the sensor quickly triggers a system stop through a safety controller. This function protects workers while the built-in diagnostic connection simplifies maintenance and minimizes wiring complexity across multiple safety points.
