Sick is Busting Myths at ProMat 2023
Sick is tackling some major myths in the industry. Why myth busting? Well, for starters, it’s easy for rumors to spread when technology evolves so quickly. Even with widely used technology that’s not so new, certain components can still be misunderstood.
All throughout the booth at ProMat 2023, Sick (Booth #S3831) will present common misconceptions and present the actual truth about different types of technology. In addition to booth demonstrations, Sick experts will be presenting an educational session called, “Busting Myths: The Auto ID Episode.”
Dispelling Auto ID Myths
Have burning questions about auto ID technology? Sick experts dispel myths from the simple to the outrageous when it comes to automatic identification and track and trace systems. If you're curious about the day-to-day of utilizing auto ID products, like installation and maintenance; the capabilities of such products, like read rates and overall performance; or you feel like a novice in this space, stop by the Sick booth to learn all about auto ID technology.
Sick is premiering the latest vision-based technology, Lector850. This system offers improved throughput with the ability to speed up operations, as the high-resolution camera is better able to pick up readings, meaning the conveyor belt can move at a faster rate. The increased speed is also possible thanks to more illumination, which increases contrast to improve read rates. Lastly, the larger depth of field and field of view decreases the number of cameras needed for lower operating costs.
Vision-based technology allows logistics centers to record all data needed for shipments at the touch of a button. In addition, 2D and 3D vision can be used to enable deep learning on conveyor systems to ensure only the correct materials make it through the system, eliminating any potentially hazardous materials.
