Quick Cape Town Fact: The Cape of Good Hope used to be called the Cape of Storms – The waves and storms caused the explorer Bartholomeu Dias to name the peninsula ‘Cape of Storms’ in 1488. Later the Portuguese king changed the name to ‘Cape of Good Hope’ to make clear to other colonial powers that as from this point they were close to the sea route to India.

SICK’s DL100Hi Distance Positioning Sensor Achieves New Levels of Accuracy

13 August 2019 By //  by Alan

MyPR: SICK’s DL100Hi Distance Positioning Sensor Achieves New Levels of Accuracy:

SICK´s DL100Hi combines leading edge technology with innovative design.

SICK Automation’s next-generation laser distance measurement sensor, DL100Hi, achieves best-in-class levels of accuracy over greater distances for positioning and control in fast-moving environments.

The high performance of the DL100Hi can help achieve cost and operating efficiencies in high-speed automated applications such as warehouse storage and retrieval and in distancing and collision prevention for overhead cranes.

With the DL100Hi, SICK has developed significantly-improved control loop technology to achieve faster and more accurate position feedback. The sensors’ data output supports applications with acceleration values up to 15 m/s2. As a result, for example, storage and retrieval systems can become more efficient – achieving shorter run times and more runs per hour.

The DL100Hi offers the choice of three measuring ranges to suit customers’ applications (0.15 to 100mm, 0.15 to 200mm and 0.15 to 300mm) with a positional accuracy of up to ±2mm and repeatability of up to ±0.5mm.

The DL100Hi is the first sensor to utilise a new modular platform for SICK distance sensors, offering the customer flexibility and easy interchangeability within a common mechanical and electrical design. A wide variety of feedback interfaces are supported including SSI, RS422, Profibus and Industrial Ethernet.

With its IP65-rated compact metal housing, the DL100Hi is reliable and robust. It achieves a Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) of 100 000 hours – double the lifetime of most standard laser sensors. Operators can, therefore, reduce downtime and the total cost of ownership.
Maintenance downtime is also minimised through the sensor bracket’s quick-release mechanism, and SpeedConTM connector technology with a 3D alignment capability which makes fine adjustment easy and cost-efficient.

“The technology advances achieved with the DL100Hi are the culmination of more than 20 years of development in laser positioning and automation control at SICK. The result is a product which is the most accurate in its class,” says SICK product specialist, Mark Madeley. “As a result of this improved performance, operators can achieve significant improvements in operating efficiency. At the same time, the sensors’ robustness and reliability reduce the risk of downtime and offer longer periods between replacement.”
