SICK safety case

System description:

The "SICK Safety" case offers several real-world examples from industry for studying safety technologies (switches, relays).

The associated practical exercises enable students to analyze a safety loop with three types of relays: standard, OSSD, and Flexi Loop, through a theoretical phase and a practical phase.
The quick connection (M12) makes it easy to change sensors.
The scenarios were developed in collaboration with SICK to reflect real industrial applications.

Educational activities:

• Study of the general safety of an industrial machine
