The guard doors of machines and systems are mostly equipped with a door handle that is only used for opening and closing. The operating and indicating elements are installed in a separate operating panel. The new TGM door handle switch series allows for the integration of these operating and indicating elements in the door handle switch. The user can choose how many switches and LEDs he would like to integrate and steute will assemble this door handle switch accordingly. The modular design of the door handle switch is cost-efficient regarding assembly and increases flexibility. The length of the handle is freely selectable; the available materials are stainless steel or anodised aluminium. Furthermore, the door handle switches are very well designed. Design-orientated solutions are especially good when the customer chooses a long handle which stretches across the complete height of the guard door.
