HMI Elements for Construction Machinery: Rotary Encoders and Rotary Switches for Safe Control Panels
Safe machine operation is of central importance especially on construction sites. Incorrect operation can quickly lead to dangerous situations and endanger both machines and people. To prevent this, EBE encoders and rotary switches are designed to function reliably even under extreme conditions. These components work tirelessly even in the face of heavy soiling, high humidity or intense vibrations. The precise technology and careful workmanship guarantee a long service life, reducing downtime and increasing safety. In addition, the encoders and rotary switches can be customized – whether it’s through additional seals, modified detents or adapted shaft lengths. For particularly demanding applications, completely enclosed, sensor-based solutions can even be offered. These are optimally protected against external influences and are still easy to operate, even when lubricating films or work gloves are in play.
