Hi all,
I’m building a root 4 cnc. I don’t know if use micro switch or inductive proximity sensor for the end stops.
first question is if root controller can manage inductive proximity sensors??
then …advantages of the sensors instead micro switches?
thank u very much

I personally use Mirco switches and have done for many many years - not a single one has failed… even when I’ve crashed into them. just bend them back into place.
Inductive ones are great and I would highly recommend. they give the benefit of no moving parts and no swarf can get caught up in them.
The Root CNC design uses Micro switches, so come modification will be needed to use Inductive sensors.
