Linear module slot type optoelectronic application

The groove shaped photoelectric switch has an approximate U-shaped appearance, with the transmitter and receiver installed in the same U-shaped housing. Due to its advantages of no need for calibration and alignment during installation, convenient wiring, and high cost-effectiveness, it is widely favored by engineers in mechanical design.

Due to the increasingly low prices of servo motors and stepper motors, linear modules have been widely used in various automation equipment, such as loading and unloading manipulators, cutting and moving equipment, glue coating equipment, and surface mount devices. The multi axis solution can achieve more flexible load movement and accurate positioning.

Usually, there are three slot switches installed on a single module, which respectively achieve left limit, origin positioning, and right limit.

In rotating mechanisms, micro slot switches are an economical and practical solution that can achieve gear speed detection and step control of flipping mechanisms.

ACS intelligent slot switches have various installation methods due to their different appearances, and all series come in plug-in and direct outlet types for selection.
