Rapid changeover solution
19 April 2013
Due for launch at TOTAL 2013, SICK UK’s new RapCo system offers a reliable, automated solution to protect product quality and boost productivity.

The RapCo system promises to speed up product changes on multi-product lines by adjusting mechanical stops automatically through an integrated package of sensors, drives, a controller, display and cabling. Simple to operate, all RapCo’s settings can be configured via a display and no knowledge of PLC programming is needed. The result is a system with batch-specific settings that achieves speed and repeatability while reducing rejects.
SICK will also demonstrate its award-winning new deTec4 next-generation safety light curtain. Easy to commission, the SICK deTec4 has a space saving, robust IP67 design, and deTec4 has no blind zones, offering optimum positioning and protection against unsafe access. Stand D12
