“PRK” Type Retro-reflective Photoelectric Sensors
“Untouched since the ice age” is not a marketing slogan, but a fact – a real piece of the ice age that still exists today: When the ice melted, immense amounts of water drained away into the rock of the Swabian Alp mountains. The earth shifting in an unusual way then caused this reservoir to be sealed off approximately 400 meters below the outside world. Since then, heavy layers of impermeable stone have prevented rainwater from seeping through to the reservoir and have protected it from all the environmental influences of our time.

Addressing IoT Security Issues in Manufacturing Sites
Although the Internet of Things (IoT) has enjoyed explosive growth in recent times, it’s still a relatively recent concept. It is based around the idea of connecting any devices or objects that incorporate electronics, software or sensors, with the aim of collecting and exchanging data. Over the past few years, IoT has spread like wildfire, and shows little sign of slowing down. However, the component manufacturer Omron points out that this rapid increase in the number of devices or end points for the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) also means that there is a correspondingly higher risk in terms of security.

Additional Safety For Lone Workers
The Budenheim company takes its name from the Rhine-based region of its founding, but today operates as a truly international chemical specialist. The company headquarters remain in the region (Close to neighbouring Mainz, Germany), but are now part of a number of additional production sites based around the world. Inevitably, some of the activities carried out by Budenheim personnel, require an element of lone working – often defined as working outside of eyesight or earshot from another colleague. Typically, this will involve maintenance or check procedures around product control, testing, and safety. Even employees not working in a high-risk environment, can face heightened risk in an emergency, due to working alone.

Lidar At Its Best
Whether for monitoring areas, facades or perimeters, when it comes to security-related building automation, SICK laser scanners (such as the LMS141) have established themselves as dependable sensor systems to detect persons and to monitor buildings. In addition to use in video management systems, in this time of the coronavirus pandemic, they also support the counting of persons and detection of their direction, as well as checking that they maintain social distancing.
