Safe person recognition for automated tugger trains

Automated tugger trains supply goods to assembly processes in precise cycles, thus increasing productivity. At the same time, employees must be protected from the automated towing vehicles of the tugger trains. microScan3 safety laser scanners are therefore installed on the front of the towing vehicles on the right and left. With their 270° scanning angle, they scan the entire surroundings of a towing vehicle, ensuring reliable person recognition. As an alternative, a TiM-S 2D LiDAR sensor or a Visionary-T DT 3D snapshot camera with time-of-flight technology can be used for this application.
