Mechanical cam switches
For positioning and limit switch tasks
Position and row-position counters are classics in the metal-working industry and world-wide automotive production. They have proven their worth in automation for decades.
Mechanical sensors are used for positioning and limit switch tasks on machine tools and presses, flexible production centres, robots, assembly and conveying equipment, and in machine and plant construction. For decades, they have proven their worth as the traditional strongmen of automation.
