We’re used to thinking of limit switches as a mechanical device that cuts the motor connection before physical damage can occur. [Anthony] decided to try a different route with this project. He built ...

A magnetic sensor turned out to be a useful replacement for a simple limit switch that prevented overtravel in screw jacks. ActionJacs made by Nook Industries in Cleveland, Ohio, once incorporated ...

New five-way adjustable limit-switch-style sensors, for 10 to 30-Vdc operation, have an active sensing face that can be adjusted for front, top, bottom, left, or right-facing targets. Four-corner LEDs ...

A new limit switch features a precision inductive sensor with a hysterisis of less than 1 µm, claimed as the lowest on the market. The IPS05/4608KS inductive sensor switch has a sensing distance of ...

The active sensing face of these 5-way adjustable sensors can be adjusted for front, top, bottom, left or right facing targets, maximizing installation and operational flexibility. Patented ...
