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.

Designed specifically for hoisting equipment, Yueqing Huilong’s limit switch hoist prevents over - lifting and over - lowering accidents in cranes, winches, and elevators. The switch features a heavy - duty cast iron housing (weighing 1.2kg) that resists impact and corrosion, ideal for outdoor construction sites. Its lever arm, constructed from hardened steel, can withstand 200kg of force, while the internal reed switch offers non - contact operation, extending service life to 5 million cycles. The switch supports multi - stage limit settings, allowing precise control of hoist travel limits (up to 30m adjustment range). Equipped with an IP65 protection rating, it performs reliably in dusty and rainy conditions. A unique self - lubricating bearing reduces friction, minimizing maintenance needs, making it a preferred choice for port logistics and manufacturing plants.
