Alignment Sensors and Switches
The Touchswitch is an electro-mechanical limit switch with no moving parts, which detects tracking and misalignment problems on bucket elevators and conveyors. When a belt misaligns or a pulley moves over and contacts the sensor, the built in solid-state electronic circuitry detects the lateral force of the belt or pulley and activates a voltage free relay contact. This relay contact is used to immediately alarm and shutdown the machine.

Signaling Gateway Solutions
Service Providers are making the transition to 4G, and 5G is coming, but legacy connectivity for voice, SMS and IN applications still remains an absolute requirement. SS7 TDM interfaces must be maintained to meet the demand to interconnect different networks and multi-protocol solutions are required to connect divergent circuit and packet switching architectures. SS7 isn’t retrograde – it’s traditional. It’s still the most robust, high performance, and reliable signaling solution out there and it’s needed today more than ever.
