Sick Sensor – one of the largest manufacturers of smart sensors and solutions, has launched a brand new and unique product. It is the world's first photoelectric sensor with a touchscreen. We believe that this product is something quite revolutionary that will definitely bring new speeds in industrial automation.
If our daily lives are no longer conceivable without touchscreen phones, why shouldn't it be possible for sensor technology? Here it is! The new SICK W10 photo sensor's easy to use, robust design and high performance have already been tested by several manufacturing companies. It is worth mentioning that this sensor has many applications with a wide range of operating modes and is able to accurately detect objects in difficult environments.

ZTF Lāsma has been working with different SICK models in the Baltics for two decades. We can honestly say that during these years SICK products have ensured high quality and excellent reliability for our customers, resulting in increased efficiency.
Thanks to its touchscreen, the new sensor is very easy to set up and use. As the SICK W10 sensor is designed with a user-friendly interface, setting and configuring the parameters will not take much time. Its easy navigation significantly reduces the time needed to start up and run the device.
The touchscreen is as intuitive to use as any mobile phone. The touchscreen allows the sensor to be quickly customised and maintained.
