Today, the product range of the safety expert includes safety sensors, safety services and safety solutions. This know-how is packaged together in the newly created Safety division. For its customers, Leuze is thus a reliable partner for efficient safety sensor solutions for the entire life cycle of their machines and systems.

Both form the basis of the Leuze safety solutions. At the heart of every safety solution are the safety concepts qualified by Leuze.Professional Leuze safety consultants assess the requirements for each individual safety solution and tailor them to the respective system layout. The Sensor People accompany the projects all the way through to the safety-related approval of the safety solution on-site.
