Industrial Limit Switch for Position and End-of-Travel Detection

A limit switch is a mechanical switch operated by contact with a moving part – a cam, door, slide or carriage. It gives a simple, reliable signal for end-of-travel, position and safety interlocks on machines, conveyors and cranes. Voxintech supplies limit switches with a choice of actuators so you can match the switch to the movement on your machine. Learn more about the how these switches work.
Limit Switch Actuator Types
| Models | Actuator | Typical use |
|---|---|---|
| VXT-LS-T22, T22M | Vertical roller plunger | Cams and slides moving across the switch |
| VXT-LS-T12, T12M | Cross roller plunger | Cams moving at 90° to the standard roller |
| VXT-LS-T11, T11M | Metal plunger, Ø8.7 mm | Direct, in-line actuation with short travel |
| VXT-LS-T9, T9M | Adjustable plastic roller swing rod | Long or variable travel, adjustable reach |
| VXT-LS-T4, T5, T8 (and M versions) | Other lever and roller options | See the product pages below |
Where It Is Used
- End-of-travel detection on machine slides, hoists and cranes
- Door and guard position monitoring
- Conveyor and material-handling position sensing
- Valve and damper open/close confirmation
Frequently Asked Questions
Limit switch or proximity sensor – which should I use?
Use a limit switch when the moving part can touch the actuator and you want a simple mechanical contact. Use an inductive proximity sensor for high-speed or high-cycle applications where contact wear is a concern.
