Product Features

Rugged and Compact Construction

The metal housing ensures excellent mechanical strength, corrosion resistance, and durability in tight spaces. Ideal for use in compact devices or limited-space machinery.

Snap-Action Contacts

Equipped with a high-speed switching mechanism that ensures fast, repeatable, and accurate actuation—perfect for high-cycle industrial operations.

Prewired for Fast Installation

The factory-preinstalled 1-meter PVC cable reduces installation time and wiring errors for quick deployment in automation panels.

Designed for Harsh Industrial Environments

IP66/IP67 protection makes the XCMD2102L1 ideal for damp, dusty, or vibration-prone applications such as packaging machines, conveyors, and lifting systems.

Certified for Global Use

UL, CSA, and CE certifications ensure compliance with international standards, suitable for OEM exports and global installations.

Applications

Conveyor End Detection in Logistics

Installed at conveyor ends or sorting junctions, the switch detects boxes or pallets reaching their final stop. It enables automatic halt or diversion, preventing jamming or overrun in automated warehouses.

Lifting Platforms and Industrial Gates

Used in vertical lifts, scissor lifts, or industrial shutters, it provides upper and lower limit signals. Its IP67-rated enclosure ensures reliability in oily, dusty, or high-humidity environments.

Robotic Motion Limits

Placed along robot arm boundaries or cell perimeters, it serves as a safety device to detect overreach and immediately stop operations. Crucial in automotive welding or pick-and-place tasks.

Packaging and Labeling Machines

Used to detect label head reset position, product presence, or mechanical return points in high-speed packaging lines. Ensures accuracy and minimizes product wastage due to mislabeling.

Smart Warehousing and AGV Docking

Installed near storage racks or AGV docking stations to verify proper pallet alignment and secure transfer points. Enhances precision in warehouse automation.


The XCMD2102L1 combines compact size with industrial-grade durability and fast switching response. It’s the ideal choice for reliable position control in demanding automated environments, from smart logistics to robotics and beyond.
