Small, Lightweight TiM351 2D Laser Scanner Ensures Reliable Indoor and Outdoor Detection Capabilities
Wide range of adjustable configuration fields provides greater application possibilities
Minneapolis, Minn. - SICK, one of the worlds leading manufacturers of sensors, safety systems, machine vision, encoders and automatic identification solutions for factory, logistics, and process automation, today announced the launch of the TiM351 2D laser scanner for outdoor-rated detection applications. Using time-of-flight measurement technology, the TiM351 can determine the presence or absence of an object within a user-defined configuration field.
One of the smallest laser scanners on the market, the TiM351 is just 60x60x86 mm in size, making it easy to install in tight environments. It includes 16 pre-configured field sets — each with three fields — for a total of 48 easily adjustable fields, making it ideal for anti-collision and presence detection applications. With a 10-meter scanning range (8 meters on black), the TiM351 reduces hardware costs since a single scanner can be used to monitor a larger area.
The IP 67-rated TiM351 incorporates High Definition Distance Measurement (HDDM) technology to provide reliable detection capabilities regardless of ambient light. This technology uses a lower power pulse, reducing the scanner size and power requirements. Its small size, rugged housing and low power consumption of 3 W make the TiM351 particularly ideal for use in a wide range of warehouse, building security, robotics, industrial vehicle, ports, and building automation environments with temperatures from -25° C to 50° C.

Featured Product
Model TR1 Tru-Trac
The Model TR1 Tru-Trac® linear measurement solution is a versatile option for tracking velocity, position, or distance over a wide variety of surfaces. An integrated encoder, measuring wheel, and spring-loaded torsion arm in one, compact unit, the Model TR1 is easy to install. The spring-loaded torsion arm offers adjustable torsion load, allowing the Model TR1 to be mounted in almost any orientation - even upside-down. The threaded shaft on the pivot axis is field reversible, providing mounting access from either side. With operating speeds up to 3000 feet per minute, a wide variety of configuration options - including multiple wheel material options - and a housing made from a durable, conductive composite material that minimizes static buildup, the Model TR1 Tru-Trac® is the ideal solution for countless applications.
