In a distribution center, parcels of mixed sizes and shapes move quickly on conveyors. The SICK GSE10-P4212 enables precise through-beam detection across wide belt sections, eliminating the need for reflectors or special tags. With its 40 m range and 1 kHz switching frequency, it tracks fast-moving parcels with accuracy. The visible red LED simplifies alignment during setup, while the IP67 protection keeps it operational even in dusty environments, ensuring smooth parcel sorting and fewer interruptions.
Automotive manufacturing requires reliable object detection regardless of paint color or surface gloss. The GSE10-P4212 overcomes these challenges by using a dedicated sender-receiver beam that performs consistently on shiny or coated car bodies. Its adjustable sensitivity supports multiple vehicle variants, while its heat and moisture resistance ensures performance through intense paint shop conditions. This reliability minimizes missed detections and contributes to a seamless production process.
In automated warehouses, it’s crucial to know whether a pallet is correctly positioned before a shuttle or lift operates. The GSE10-P4212’s long sensing range allows installation across wide storage racks, detecting pallets or objects even in dimly lit areas. Its focused optical beam avoids false readings from reflections, and the compact housing fits easily into tight mechanical spaces. The durable ABS/PMMA enclosure resists vibration and dust, improving inventory accuracy and reducing operational delays.
Loading bays demand safety and timing when vehicles move in or out. The GSE10-P4212 serves as a barrier sensor across large dock doors to detect vehicles or objects that interrupt its beam. Its through-beam system works reliably on any surface color, including dark trucks and wooden pallets. The fast response speed allows instant activation of gates or alarms, while the weather-resistant housing ensures uninterrupted operation in outdoor or semi-open environments, promoting both safety and efficiency.
