Roller lever switches are limit switches whose actuating lever is provided with a roller. If this role is approached by a workpiece or machine part, a camshaft turns in the switch , which actuates the contacts. In addition to a simple roller lever, the switches can also have angular roller levers or length-adjustable swivel levers as drive elements. The role achieves a longer lifespan of the lever and lower actuation forces.
