HOKUYO UAM-02LP
Uncategorized
The UAM-02LP is a protective scanning device used for zone guarding near production equipment areas and monitoring the travel path of moving vehicles. Using the TOF (Time of Flight) operating principle for distance measurement, the scanner will calculate the time during which a pulse-emitted beam is reflected back from any detected object within a 190º scanning angle. Any object or person entering the configured warning and protection zones will initiate an output for stopping a machine or automated guided vehicle. The safety laser scanner allows users to easily configure simple or complex protection and/or warning zones to meet the application requirements.

To maximize safety in a compact size, the UAM is an ideal solution for preventing a potentially unsafe situation in many industrial sectors.
