Rotating Cam Limit Switch
Gemco 1980 Series Rotating Cam Limit Switches precisely control the limits of rotary motion expressed in shaft rotation, either through a roller chain, gear train, or directly. The device was developed to use for heavy duty material handling mechanisms, mechanical presses, packaging machines, rotary table, and many applications where accurate, repetitive, sequential operations are required in control circuitry.
The Gemco Rotating Cam Limit Switch makes it possible to open or close independent circuits at desired angular position of the input shaft. Closed circuits or open circuits from 4 to 356 degrees are possible without the use of special cams. The cam settings can be adjusted at any angular position of the cam shaft. No tools are necessary to adjust cam settings!
The 1980 series is available in NEMA Type 1, NEMA Type 4 & 5, NEMA 7 , NEMA 9, and NEMA12 molded enclosures and can be ordered wotj 2 tp 40 circuits.
