Safety Radar
What are safety radar systems?
Radar systems make it possible to create cost-effective safety barriers around machines and robots.
Unlike laser scanners are radar systems unresponsive to dust, grit, sparks, temperature differences, etc. The LBK system is suitable for use in PLD (EN / ISO 1384-1) and SIL 2 (EN / IEC 62061) applications.

Inxpect Safety Studio
Inxpect Safety Studio represents the next generation of radar safety configuration software. Designed for engineers working with advanced sensing technology, it combines an entirely redesigned graphical interface with powerful new capabilities. Users can configure and validate Inxpect radar sensors through true 3D visualisation of fields of view, enabling faster, more intuitive setup and reducing commissioning times significantly.
The platform supports both online and offline modes, allowing complete project development. From feasibility to deployment, without requiring connected hardware. Multi-system management ensures scalability across multiple control units and sensor arrays, while enhanced import functions for 2D and 3D models streamline sensor positioning within complex layouts.
With reinforced cybersecurity protocols and compatibility across operating systems, Inxpect Safety Studio provides a secure, flexible, and future-ready environment for industrial safety applications.
Field Of View
Inxpect’s radar sensors offer a range of options when it comes to detection fields. The interesting thing about these sensors is that they can have up to four different detection fields, all of which can be individually adapted to the specific needs of a given application.
The Field of View (FOV), or field of view, of Inxpect’s radar sensors is a crucial concept that defines the scope of detection and monitoring. The FOV refers to the area covered by the sensor within which objects can be detected. For Inxpect’s radar sensors, the FOV is designed with a wide coverage to provide an extended detection range while remaining accurate.
As for the dimensions of the detection fields, they can vary depending on the specific model of the sensor. Some sensors can have detection fields of 4, 5 or even 9 metres long. Moreover, the individual detection fields are separately adjustable, where the width can be adjusted in 5° or 10° increments, ranging from 10° to 100°.
*With the S101 sensor this is not possible, there is only the choice of wide or narrow
The ability to customise the FOV and size of the detection fields allows users to fine-tune Inxpect’s radar sensors to the requirements of different applications, making the radar sensors versatile and flexible for use in different scenarios.
Symmetrical FOV
Asymmetrical FOV
Corridor FOV
The three main detection fields offered by Inxpect’s radar sensors are symmetric, asymmetric and corridor (corridor). Each of these detection fields has its own unique characteristics and application areas.
Symmetrical FOV provides equal coverage on both sides of the central axis of the sensor, which is ideal for applications where uniform monitoring of the area is desired.
Asymmetrical FOV, on the other hand, provides different detection angles on either side of the central axis of the sensor. This can be useful in situations where the need for monitoring on one side is greater than on the other, such as when monitoring a lane on a motorway.
Corridor FOV, as the name suggests, focuses on creating a detection field that resembles a corridor or corridor. This involves cutting off the sides of the FOV, which can be useful in narrow corridors or paths where only movements within the corridor are relevant.
