Detects Objects in Multiple Directions
with High Sensitivity, Ideal for Robotics
■ Detects object contact from multiple directions
and operates even with a slight force.
■ Slow-action switching mechanism used. Move-
ment differential as small as 0.01 mm assures
high accuracy of detection.
■ Gold-plated contact with coil spring capable of
switching micro current/voltag e load while p roviding high contact reliability.
■ Highly resistant to dust, fine particles and water or
oil splash, conforming to IP67.
■ Three sizes (M10, M8, and M5) and three types of
actuators (hemispheric, cone-shaped, and wobble
stick).
