Limit Switches
Limit switches are electromechanical devices used to detect the presence, absence,
or position of an object through physical contact. Widely employed in industrial
automation, machinery safety, and conveyor systems, limit switches provide reliable
feedback to control systems, ensuring accurate machine operation and positioning.
These switches operate when an object comes into contact with an actuator arm or
plunger, triggering a mechanical movement that opens or closes an electrical
circuit. Limit switches come in various configurations including roller lever,
plunger, and rotary types to suit different mechanical setups and applications.

Most Common Questions
Why use limit switches in automation systems? Limit switches offer dependable
position and safety feedback without the need for complex sensors, making them ideal
for repetitive motion detection, end-of-travel control, and safety interlocking in
automated machinery.
