Turck's MR15-Q80 3D radar scanner ensures
reliable object detection and collision avoidance

Many radar sensors for collision avoidance are limited to detecting the distance and thus only output one dimension as a measured value. Turck's new MR15-Q80 radar scanner, on the other hand, delivers genuine 3D data and thus significantly improves the mapping of objects and spaces, giving developers and system engineers a greater degree of freedom. Thanks to its robust design, which can withstand shocks of up to 100 g, and the SAE J1939 interface, the scanner is particularly suitable for use in mobile equipment, but also for AGVs or conventional industrial trucks in intralogistics.

IO-Link and J1939 interface

Turck's MR15-Q80 is a robust radar scanner that records and outputs environmental data in three dimensions. It is the only device with these features that is available with a J1939 interface for mobile equipment in addition to IO-Link. The 60 gigahertz radar scanner detects objects up to 15 meters away within the freely definable detection angles of 120° horizontally and 100° vertically. The data can be used, for example, for 3D object detection, collision avoidance, height control or blind spot monitoring. Thanks to its technology, radar technology is more robust than alternative solutions such as laser or ultrasonic sensors and is therefore very well suited for use in mobile equipment, port facilities or intralogistics applications.
The TAS Turck Automation Suite supports the user in parameterizing the scanner via the "Radar Monitor" app, which displays the raw signal in three graphs
