Detecting, interpreting, communicating: smart sensors for intelligent packaging machines

摘要

Marco Kaiser, strategic industry manager for consumer goods, packaging in the factory automation global industry center at SICK AG, Waldkirch, Germany talks about what sensor support can do for packaging. Smart packaging - the use of active and intelligent packaging is growth and future trend offering huge potential. The networking of the physical and digital worlds using smart packaging also has a direct impact on the machines that produce packaging and package products. This is reflected, for example, in the increasing use of intelligent sensors that can communicate in packaging machines. The portfolio of Smart Sensor Solutions from SICK is actively paving the way for increased flexibility, transparency, efficiency, quality, and availability.
