A specially high-precision touch switch used as a designated component for rockets, possessing the "performance" and "durability" to fly to space.
The My-Com series was born in 1966 at the Swiss company Baumer and has been sold in Japan since 1975. Even after several decades, it continues to be used by a large number of customers as an exceptional high-precision touch switch.
To minimize electrical resistance, it employs gold-plated balls and contacts, and uses zirconium oxide, ruby, and carbide for the switch's measurement terminal axis to reduce the impact of temperature and enhance durability. Despite its extremely simple structure, each part is precisely designed, allowing for not only accuracy but also very stable switching.
Modifications to the product or using it in ways not intended will naturally lead to failures. However, when used correctly and for its intended purpose, it exhibits outstanding durability.
In fact, the high-precision touch switch My-Com series has met the extremely stringent requirements of the European Space Agency and has been used as specified components in rockets, flying not only on the ground but also into space in 1988. Please experience the "performance" and "durability" that can reach even into space.
