Snap Action, Limit Switches ZM160B60A01 Application Field and Working Principle

Snap action switches, also known as limit switches, are electromechanical devices commonly used to detect the physical position of an object or act as a security measure. Given their ability to sense physical movement, they are ideal for a wide range of automation applications. The series of snap action switches includes plunger and roller lever types, all of which have their own unique capabilities, application fields, and working principles. The ZM160B60A01 is a widely used snap action switch, which belongs to the plunger type family. It provides reliable performance at high speed operation and is capable of much higher loads than its competitors. It is widely used in robot control, automotive and industrial machinery, machine tools,etc.The ZM160B60A01 consists of two parts – the actuator and the contact block. The actuator consists of two contacts that operate in tandem, along with a series of springs that give the switch its “snap” action. This type of switch is unique in that it is able to detect changes in position even when the motion is slow or of short duration, as well as detect changes over a wide spectrum of motion. The contact block is made of non-magnetic material and contains a movable contact that moves in conjunction with the actuator.The ZM160B60A01 uses the plunger type of eccentric wheel principle in order to detect objects. The wheel is mounted on an axle and when a physical object applies pressure to the wheel, it rotates, causing the switch to trip and close the contact in the contact block. The wheel itself is made of non-magnetic material and is adjustable in order to allow for different settings and sensitivity levels.As previously mentioned, the ZM160B60A01 is very versatile and can be used in a wide range of applications, such as industrial machinery, robots and machine tools. It is suitable for detecting slow speeds and short movements, as well as objects of various lengths and thicknesses. Furthermore, the switch is also resistant to extreme environment factors such as shock, vibration and temperatures. In conclusion, the ZM160B60A01 snap action switch is a highly efficient and reliable device that can detect physical objects over a wide range of motion and in a variety of settings. Thanks to its robust construction and resilient design, it is one of the most preferred snap action switches by users in the industry.
