Safety Laser Scanners

Banner Engineering’s safety laser scanners provide a dependable and reliable solution for safeguarding mobile vehicles and stationary applications, such as the interior of robotic work cells that cannot be solved by other safeguarding solutions. SX Series scanners protect personnel, equipment and mobile systems within a user-defined area, continuously scanning a 275-degree area to create a two-dimensional protected zone that must be crossed to reach the hazard. They are suitable for horizontal, vertical and mobile applications.

Banner’s new SX5-B6 laser scanner can be mounted horizontally or vertically, installed to monitor the space around corners, positioned centrally to observe two separate 90-degree zones or attached to automated guided vehicles to prevent collisions. Its field of view makes it extremely versatile for protecting safety zones, whether floor areas or vertical planes. Designed to operate as a single unit, the SX5-B6 scanner is compact, durable and easy to deploy for area and access guarding. The SX5-B6 is versatile, with five different available detection resolutions and easy-to-use software that can be configured to detect or ignore objects of various sizes.
