KW12-3 Mechanical Endstop Switch for 3D Printers, CNC and Automation

Description

The KW12-3 is a mechanical limit switch designed to detect the end of travel of a moving axis or mechanism. It provides the controller with a position signal for homing, motion referencing and travel limit detection.

This version is supplied without a cable, allowing the wiring type and cable length to be selected according to the requirements of each machine.

Function within the system

During the homing process, the switch changes state when actuated by a moving component. The firmware uses this signal to establish a reliable reference position before normal machine operation.
