A micro switch is a type of electrical switch that is operated by a small force, usually by a tipping point mechanism. It is a compact switch that is designed to be sensitive to even small changes in its operating environment. Micro switches are commonly used in a variety of applications, including appliances, automotive systems, industrial equipment, and medical devices. They are often used in safety-critical applications where precise control and reliable operation are required. Micro switches are typically made of a spring-loaded lever or plunger that is actuated by the application of a small force. When the lever or plunger is depressed or released, it causes the switch to change its state from open to closed or closed to open, thereby turning a device on or off.
Micro switches are also known as snap-action switches or miniature switches. They are called snap-action switches because they have a mechanism that causes the switch to "snap" into position when it changes state, which provides a tactile feedback to the user. Micro switches are designed to be very durable and reliable, with a long operating life of up to several million cycles. They are often used in harsh environments where they are subjected to shock, vibration, and temperature extremes. One of the advantages of micro switches is that they are easy to install and integrate into existing systems. They are available in a wide range of configurations, including different contact arrangements, operating forces, and mounting options. Micro switches can be used in a variety of applications, including limit switches, safety interlocks, door switches, pressure switches, subminiature switch, and temperature switches. They are often used in industrial equipment, such as conveyor belts, elevators, and cranes, to ensure safe operation and prevent accidents.
