Product details

Product Overview

SICK NAV350-3232 is a high-performance 2D LiDAR sensor for indoor navigation. It uses a 905 nm laser (Class 1, safe for eyes). The 360° horizontal aperture scans at 8 Hz. It detects almost any object shape with high precision. This sensor is built for automated guided vehicles (AGVs) and mobile robots.

It offers a working range up to 250 m (70 m on reflectors). At 10% remission, it scans 35 m; at 90%, it reaches 100 m. The angular resolution is 0.25°. With ±4 mm positioning accuracy, it ensures reliable navigation. The rugged aluminum housing (IP65) withstands tough indoor environments.
