Sensor solutions for the stone, ceramic and glass industry
Challenges

Emission measurement
Glass manufacturing is an energy-intensive process involving high temperatures. It emits nitrogen oxides (NOX), sulfur dioxides (SO2), and carbon dioxide (CO2), which must be continuously monitored. The analytical measuring techniques used by SICK deliver all the necessary information, which is sent to a data acquisition system for further processing if required.

Safety
Safe machines ensure high productivity. SICK offers the widest portfolio of safety solutions: marked by a high degree of integration in its controls and accompanied by an extensive range of services that includes consulting, commissioning, training and additional education.

Quality control
SICK offers the right solution for all quality control applications: displacement sensors for precisely measuring the thickness of glass panel, laser volume flow sensors for ensuring materials are transported correctly, vision sensors for in-line quality control, and smart camera systems for high-end testing. This ensures that the required quality is achieved.

Service
SICK is a one-stop shop for a complete range of services – expert advice, skilled planning services, detailed project planning and engineering, installation, and commissioning. We also provide reliable post-sales maintenance and repair support.
