2 Safety information
2.1 Intended use
The VMS6200 track and trace system is used to solve demanding applications in the area
of object measurement and position determination.
Not only large objects, but also black, foiled or highly reflective objects can be dynamically
and reliably measured on a wide range of conveyor systems (conveyor belts, roller
conveyors).
Two 2D LiDAR sensors determine the smallest rectangular box that fully encloses an
object regardless of its shape, and then use this to derive the length, width and height of
the object.
The VMS6200 may only be operated in an industrial environment. Applications include,
for example, measuring baggage and freight items on conveyor systems in airports,
measuring objects in the incoming and outgoing goods areas in retail and warehousing,
as well as for storage and conveyor systems.
The objects can be measured with or without object carriers, for example pallets.
The modular system construction of the VMS6200 ensures compatibility with existing
solutions from SICK and enables adaptations to customer-specific applications.
NOTE! Intended use also includes observance of this system description, in particular the
safety notes and repair and maintenance requirements as well as proper installation, in
particular for billing operation.
