Sapphire S Optical X-Endstop

thingiverse

Optical Endstop is a crucial component of many mechanical systems, serving as a vital safety mechanism that prevents damage to both machinery and personnel. This device consists of an infrared LED or photodiode pair connected via a cable, which is typically attached to the end of a mechanical axis, such as a linear rail or rotary shaft. When the axis reaches its physical limit, it triggers the optical sensor, alerting the system to stop movement immediately.
