Application
Renew’s horizontal limit switches play a critical role in ensuring the safety, precision, and reliability of various devices across different fields. Here are some popular or potential application.
Articulated robotic arms and grippers
Integrated into grippers of the robotic arm wrist to sense grip pressure and prevent overextension, as well as integrated into articulated robotic arms for use in control assemblies and provide end-of-travel and grid-style guidance.
