LXW511M Travel / Limit Switch — for Ball Sealer Vacuum Packaging Machines and Aluminum‑Frame Sealing Machines A reliable travel (limit) switch designed to detect endoftravel and control motion on ball sealer vacuum packaging machines and aluminum frame sealing equipment. The LXW511M provides dependable mechanical position sensing to protect sealing heads, trigger machine cycles and prevent overtravel — a simple replacement or upgrade part to keep production running smoothly. Key benefits Precise position control: Accurately detects travel endpoints so sealing heads and moving parts stop where they should, improving sealing consistency and reducing scrap. Machine protection: Prevents overtravel and mechanical collisions that cause downtime and costly repairs. Easy replacement and retrofit: Fits as a direct service part or retrofit component on many vacuum packaging and aluminumframe sealing machines, minimizing installation time. Improved uptime: Robust sensing reduces false triggers and wearrelated failures, helping maintain continuous operation. Main attributes Functionality: Mechanical travel/limit switch for endoftravel detection and control input to machine logic or relay systems. Model: LXW511M — standard, widely used limit switch type for packaging machinery. Compatibility: Designed for ball sealer vacuum packaging machines and aluminumframe sealing machines; suitable for similar sealing and packaging equipment that use mechanical limit inputs. Size and mounting: Compact industrial footprint with common mounting points for straightforward installation into existing machine frames or assemblies. Construction and durability: Built for industrial use in packaging environments; engineered to withstand frequent actuation in sealing cycles. Performance: Reliable, repeatable switching action to support consistent machine timing and safety interlocks. Typical applications Sealing head travel sensing: Detects the or bottom position of the sealing head on ball sealer vacuum packaging machines to trigger heating, cutting or cycle transitions. Safety and interlock: Acts as a machine interlock to prevent the sealing mechanism from operating if the head or protective guard is out of position. Motion control and counting: Used to signal conveyor or actuator controllers for indexing, cycle counting or synchronization with upstream/downstream equipment. Installation and maintenance notes Mounting: or mount the LXW511M in the same location and orientation as the original switch when servicing packaging or sealing equipment. Use existing bracket holes where possible. Wiring: Connect switch terminals to the machine control inputs following the machine wiring diagram. Verify connections and insulation before powering the machine. Testing: After installation, perform manual actuation checks and a controlled cycle test to confirm correct operation and timing. Maintenance: Inspect periodically for wear, proper actuation, and secure mounting. promptly if actuation becomes inconsistent. Why choose LXW511M for your sealing equipment Purposebuilt for packaging machinery: Specifically suited to the needs of ball sealer vacuum packaging machines and aluminumframe sealing machines where reliable, repeatable travel detection is essential. Straightforward service part: Minimizes downtime with a simple, familiar replacement option that integrates with common packaging machine controls and mounting arrangements. Practical, reliable performance: Delivers consistent operation across cycle environments typical of sealing and vacuum packaging production. Compatible environments Industrial packaging lines, vacuum packaging machines, tabletop or bench sealing machines with aluminum frames, and other sealing equipment that require a mechanical travel or limit switch input. If you need a direct, dependable limit switch for ball sealer vacuum packaging or aluminumframe sealing machines, the LXW511M offers a compact, easytoinstall solution to improve machine protection, cycle accuracy and uptime.
