  • Flame-retardant thermoplastic terminal housing engineered to UL94V-0 self-extinguishing ratings
  • High-decibel piezoelectric sounders and tower beacons delivering clear plant floor alerting
  • Interchangeable auxiliary contact blocks, protective covers, and cross-connection jumpers

South Korean industrial heritage and manufacturing facilities of Kacon

Established in 1955 in South Korea, Korea Auto Controls Co., Ltd. (Kacon) has developed into a prominent designer and manufacturer of low-voltage control electrical apparatus and switching devices.

The enterprise operates three modern manufacturing bases in Incheon (South Korea), Yueqing, and Weihai (China). Proprietary design bureaus and automated testing laboratories ensure high technical performance, energy efficiency, and operational stability across all manufactured assemblies.

Reliable component delivery has been acknowledged with quality supplier distinctions from major South Korean industrial groups LG and Samsung. Kacon hardware is utilized by international heavy enterprises including Hankook Tire, Doosan Group, XCMG, LGMG, SANY, and Siemens Healthineers.

Complete quality administration under ISO 9001 governs all phases from raw alloy inspection to final electrical verification.

Industrial foot switches in protective metal housing HRF series

Kacon HRF series foot switches deliver dependable electrical circuit switching for automated machine tools, mechanical stamping presses, industrial shears, and welding equipment. The heavy-duty aluminum alloy housing withstands harsh workshop mechanical impacts.

An overhead protective shield encloses the pedal, preventing unintended machine actuation from falling tools or dropped metal workpieces. The grooved footbed ensures secure footwear grip during continuous operation.

Internal microswitch assemblies utilize silver alloy contact points providing high electrical arc resistance and prolonged service life. Sealed gaskets protect the contact chamber from industrial cutting lubricants, hydraulic oils, and airborne dust to IP65 ratings.

The specialized medical series features smooth operation, minimal acoustic noise, and an ergonomic pedal slope reducing operator fatigue.

Precision limit and position switches Kacon KXM, KXL, and KXN series

Kacon limit switches KXM, KXL, and KXN series monitor travel limits and boundary positions on machine tools, automated transfer lines, and lifting mechanisms. Rugged metallic and thermoplastic outer enclosures maintain structural rigidity and interior component protection.

Modular engineering allows versatile actuator head interchangeability: adjustable roller levers, steel push plungers, and flexible spring rods configured for diverse automated kinematics.

Double-pole snap-action contact blocks provide rapid circuit interruption when moving parts reach designated trigger thresholds, preventing contact arcing during low-speed tooling motions. Built-in elastomer seals protect the switching chamber against chemical coolants and mineral oils.

Precision-ground internal cams ensure consistent repeatability across millions of cycles without drift.

Command push buttons, pilot lamps, and emergency stop control stations

Kacon industrial push buttons, selector switches, and pilot indicators with mounting diameters 16 mm, 22 mm, and 30 mm equip operator panels and distribution boards.

Quick-release contact blocks with screw clamp terminals accelerate panel wiring and accommodate diverse open and closed circuit configurations. Control buttons feature bright LED illumination providing panoramic visibility and minimal power draw during round-the-clock plant operation.

Emergency mushroom push buttons incorporate positive mechanical latching and turn-to-reset functionality compliant with machinery safety regulations. Sturdy polycarbonate control enclosures resist vibration, chemical exposure, and ultraviolet aging.

Key-operated selector switches restrict unauthorized operational access to sensitive machinery setup modes.

Electromagnetic general-purpose relays KMY and solid state relays SSR

To provide electrical signal isolation and actuator switching, Kacon produces KMY electromagnetic relays and SSR solid state relay units. KMY relays feature an integrated LED status indicator and a mechanical flag revealing contact positions during commissioning and troubleshooting.

Dedicated DIN-rail sockets with screw terminals ensure secure conductor clamping and straightforward layout in 35 mm rail enclosures.

Solid state relays SSR execute spark-free switching of electric heating elements, solenoids, and pump drives at elevated cycle rates. Optical isolation up to 4000 V shields digital controller circuits from transient line spikes and voltage surges.

A substantial aluminum base plate provides optimal thermal dissipation to external heat sinks under continuous electrical load.

Distribution terminal blocks, acoustic buzzers, and protective hardware

Kacon terminal products encompass feed-through, grounding, and multi-tier screw terminal blocks fabricated from self-extinguishing polyamide rated to UL94V-0 standards.

Current-carrying busbars machined from high-purity electrical brass with nickel plating prevent galvanic corrosion when joining copper and aluminum conductors. Pressure plates protect delicate conductor strands from overtightening damage.

For plant personnel notification, Kacon supplies piezoelectric audio buzzers providing continuous or pulsing sound alongside modular multi-tier warning tower beacons.

Machine safety installations employ mechanical safety door interlock switches that reliably interrupt motor power whenever protective guards or enclosure access panels are opened.
