About nanoScan3

nanoScan3 monitors a horizontal plane around compact mobile machines and collaborative installations using SICK's safeHDDM laser-scanning method. Configured protective fields feed certified outputs or a safety network so the machine controller can slow or stop motion when a person or object enters. Ethernet measurement data can also support navigation, but the scanner does not itself command a vehicle or determine its route.

The protective field extends to three metres across a 275-degree scan. Core models provide eight configurable fields, while Pro configurations support up to 128; available connections and simultaneous monitoring functions vary by version. SICK rates the family Type 3, SIL 2 and performance level d. Achieving that safety level in a machine requires correct mounting, resolution, field geometry, response-time calculation, control integration, contamination management and validation.

Timeline

  • Filics and SICK integrate safety sensing into Unit AMRs

    2025-03-31 - Capability - Filics integrated two SICK nanoScan3 safety laser scanners—one at the front and one at the rear of each Unit—to protect people and material in tight intralogistics spaces. The scanners provide precise measurements for safety and vehicle localization, with 128 configurable fields reaching up to 3 metres and a 275-degree scanning angle. SICK’s Safety Designer software lets Filics configure and import the protection fields so Unit can enter, pass through and leave pallet positions safely.

  • SICK safety sensing supports autonomous UV disinfection robot

    2020-06-17 - Partnership - The Chinese start-up Youibot selected the nanoScan3 from SICK as a tried-and-proven solution for controlling mobile platforms in the fight against viruses. So too the Chinese start-up Youibot , which has developed a disinfection robot.
