Robotics and system integration

The Schmersal Group offers a comprehensive range of products and services for safeguarding industrial robots – from simple safety components to programmable safety controllers. We develop demand-oriented system solutions for robot manufacturers as well as application-specific special solutions.

For access and area guarding, we have various system solutions in our programme that are suitable for different robot systems, such as: non-contact and tactile protective devices, safety sensors, fieldbus systems and safety logics.

In the field of coexistence, collaboration and sequential and parallel cooperation between humans and robots without a safety fence, Schmersal draws on many years of experience in robotics. One example is Schmersal’s patented Safety Controller – a product that is directly adapted to the robot controller to ensure safe spaces and safe resulting speeds of the robot.

Schmersal’s robot-specific portfolio meets all requirements of the C standards DIN EN ISO 10218-1 (industrial robots) and DIN EN ISO 10218-2 (robot systems and integration).
