Datalogic will present safety scanning, machine vision, measurement and data capture systems at SPS 2026 in Nuremberg, Germany. The demonstrations cover tasks from protecting operators around robotic cells to inspecting components and recording inventory movements. Datasensing, the group company specializing in sensors, safety devices and machine vision products, will join Datalogic at the event from November 24 to 26.
The systems on display address automated processes and tasks that still rely on operators collecting data by hand. The safety and measurement demonstrations focus on monitoring production areas and determining the dimensions of items moving through logistics systems. For inspection, Datalogic will show deep learning software, a vision processor and a compact vision sensor. Other demonstrations will cover stationary code reading and laser marking. Mobile computers and handheld scanners will support intralogistics applications. The SLS10 safety laser scanner has a protection range of up to 10 meters. Datalogic describes it as the first safety laser scanner to reach this range. It is intended for long assembly lines, robotic cells and palletizing systems. Covering larger areas with fewer devices can simplify installation and reduce hardware and maintenance requirements.
Measurement and inspection
A walk-in demonstration of the DS4 measurement portal will show how its measuring light curtain determines the height, width and volume of pallets. This measurement takes place before pallets enter automated storage and retrieval systems. The system can also detect and dimension items with different shapes and orientations on conveyor lines. For quality control, the inspection demonstration combines PEKAT VISION deep learning software with the MX-G vision processor and Smart-VS vision sensor. Together, these systems cover different levels of inspection complexity. Applications can range from extensive image analysis to simpler checks. The Smart-VS sensor is intended for presence and absence checks, positioning and basic quality verification. More demanding applications can use the processing power and flexibility of the MX-G and PEKAT VISION combination.
Marking and data capture
Datalogic will also demonstrate systems for traceability in production and logistics. Its Matrix family of stationary industrial scanners is intended to improve data capture efficiency and accuracy in both settings. A laser marking demonstration will feature the new AREX400 AF. The system can mark complex components with multiple surfaces or height levels in a single cycle. As a result, it supports traceability throughout a product’s lifecycle. For manual data collection, Datalogic will show the Falcon X60/X65 and Skorpio X40/X45 mobile computers. PowerScan 9600 industrial handheld scanners will also be on display. These devices are designed for reading in demanding environments. They allow operators to scan items and locations where the work takes place. This can improve inventory record accuracy and reduce transcription errors. The demonstrations will be located in Hall 7A, Booth 110.
