Limit Switch: General-Purpose Device for Motion Position and Stroke Control

Limit Switch: General-Purpose Device for Motion Position and Stroke Control

The limit switch is a general term for switches used to restrict object motion positions or strokes, including travel limit switches, crane limit switches, micro limit switches, etc. It detects mechanical motion through contact or non-contact methods, triggering circuit changes at preset positions to control equipment operation or stop motion. Widely used in industrial automation, transportation, and construction machinery, this versatile switch is a fundamental component for ensuring safe and regulated motion in mechanical systems.

Robotic and medical devices that are space constrained can make use of the XCK J10541H29, a high-precision limit switch. The built in meter stroke makes the actuator easier to use, while the 3mm stroke ensures that it stays within measure. Any sensitive electronics are guaranteed smooth functioning due to the gold plated contacts that serve low current signal switching, going as low as 10mA. IP60 rated protection further ensures smooth functioning and reliable performance in both industrial and laboratory settings, with operational temperatures ranging -25 degrees Celcius to 85 degrees Celcius.

Rob Wilson
Universal Solution for Diverse Applications

As a system integrator, we use these limit switches across industries—from elevator safety to conveyor position control. The variety of types (mechanical, optical) lets us choose the best fit for each client's needs, and the global certifications (CE/UL) simplify compliance in different markets. Clients appreciate their 'fit-and-forget' reliability—we've never had a callback for limit switch issues in 50+ projects.

Tom Li
Cost-Effective Safety for Small Businesses

For our small woodshop, these limit switches replaced expensive custom sensors at a fraction of the cost. The mechanical type works perfectly for our table saw's travel limits, and the adjustable screws let us fine-tune as we upgrade our equipment. Simple to install, reliable in daily use—ideal for businesses on a budget.
