Industrial Machine Switches

An industrial machine switch must be robust and hard-wearing to be able to withstand the harsh environments of the industrial industry.

We have both footswitches and hand controls which are well suited to industrial machinery. Footswitches are a more popular choice as an industrial machine switch because it gives the user full use of both hands within a hazardous environment.

Industrial machine switches can be used on the following machinery; 

• Digger controls
• Folding machines
• Metal cutting machinery
• Stapling machines

For all of the above applications, we would recommend using one of our heavy-duty footswitches.
