Fig. 2.1-1:
A laser diode coupled with transmitter optics produces focused light pulses. These
pulses are projected across the monitored surface by a rotating mirror in such a way that
a light pulse is triggered in each of the angle segments within 40 ms (scanning rate: 25
scans/s).
Fig. 2.1-2:
The SIMATIC FS600 Laser Scanner can detect people up to a distance of 4.0 m e.g.
2.15 m – even if they are wearing very dark clothing or exhibit a low degree of
reflectance. Dangerous movements are brought to a standstill by two failsafe
semiconductor outputs.
