Overview of the TIM510-9950000S01 Laser Scanner
The TiM5xx series represents SICK’s evolution from the field-evaluation-only TiM3xx into a full measurement data output platform. The TIM510-9950000S01 (Part No. 1062210) outputs raw scan data — the distance measurement from every angular step across 270° — via RS-232 at 460.8 kBaud, enabling the host system (embedded PC, Raspberry Pi, industrial PLC with COM port, or STM32 microcontroller) to build point clouds, perform SLAM, or track objects in software.
The M12 12-pin connector cable (0.3m included) carries both power and the RS-232 TxD/RxD signals. A Micro USB port provides a separate service interface for parameterization using SICK SOPAS ET software without interrupting operation.

Industrial Applications of the TIM510-9950000S01
The RS-232 scan data output and HDDM+ technology make the TIM510-9950000S01 well-suited for software-defined sensing applications:
- Indoor AGV/AMR navigation: The 270° raw scan data output via RS-232 feeds directly into an onboard embedded computer (Raspberry Pi, NVIDIA Jetson, STM32) for real-time SLAM and obstacle avoidance path planning. The serial interface is preferred in cost-sensitive AGV designs where Ethernet networking adds unnecessary complexity.
- People and vehicle counting: Installed at doorways or corridors to generate occupancy counts. The host PC analyzes the scan data stream to detect crossing events, direction of movement, and congestion levels.
- CNC and fixed-machine automation: Detects workpiece presence and position on a workbench up to 4m away. The scan data allows software to compute accurate 2D object coordinates without a camera system.
- Smart conveyor systems: Scans package profiles to classify sizes and trigger grippers or divert gates. IP65 protects against dust in industrial warehouse environments.
- Indoor security and access control: Detects intrusion into restricted indoor zones. The PNP ‘Device Ready’ output directly triggers alarm systems without additional programming.
AUMI has supplied TiM5xx sensors for AGV and smart warehouse monitoring projects across Vietnam, particularly for embedded serial integration with low-cost Raspberry Pi and industrial PC platforms.
