The SICK G6 LASER Light scanner (GTB6-P3211) is a compact proximity sensor that uses laser-based background suppression to reliably detect objects within a 400 mm scanning range.
Operating at a 680 nm wavelength, this sensor measures just 12 x 31.5 x 21 mm and weighs 6 grams, making it suitable for space-constrained installations.
The unit ships with a 10 meter connection cable and carries an IP67 protection rating per EN 60529, providing dust-tight sealing and protection against temporary water immersion.
Background suppression technology enables the sensor to ignore objects beyond the set detection range, useful in applications where consistent foreground object detection is required regardless of background conditions.
The compact form factor and protected enclosure make this sensor appropriate for integration into automated assembly systems, packaging machinery, and material handling equipment where small part detection or precise position sensing is needed.
