Industrial Safety Systems for Safeguarding Hazardous Zones and for Access Protection

A specialist sensor manufacture, SICK develop pioneering products for safeguarding hazardous zones and for access protection.

Product Range:
  • Optoelectronic Protective Devices
  • Non contact safety switches
  • Electromechanical Safety Switches
  • Safety command devices
  • sens:Control - safe control solutions
  • Configuration software CDS

Safexpert Software 
Safexpert is the software, which guides you safely and effectively to CE certification. Safexpert simplifies the work and saves time.


Opto-electronic protective devices
Intelligent, opto-electronic safety devices like laser scanner, light grids and light curtains can be used for safeguarding dangerous points, hazardous areas and access control – both vertically and horizontally. These non-contact devices are selfmonitoring, can be tested and they correspond with worldwide safety standards.          

Non Contact Safety Switches
Stricter safety regulations, and the need for tamper-proof safety at work, now make modern safety switches indispensable. Interlock expertise from SICK opens up numerous new opportunities for use.             

Electromechanical Safety Switches
SICK products easily withstand harsh conditions such as impacts and vibrations. Opening, closing and locking is reliably guaranteed over a long lifetime. SICK safety switches are available in plastic or metal versions.

Safety Command Devices
Safety command devices are of major importance as man-machine interface in industrial applications. With SICK safety command devices dangerous movements can be stopped safely and machine functions can be started safely whilst the protective device is open.

sens:Control - Safe Control Solutions
There is a growing importance put on integrating intelligent safety systems in automated environments. With intelliface, the intelligent interface technology for safety engineering. SICK provides you with a whole range of interface products that were developed especially for linking to safety products and machinery.
