The lower and upper limit switch motion control in Dynamic Triaxial Systems is a key feature that helps maintain strict operational boundaries during testing. These limit switches define the maximum and minimum positions that the system’s components can move within so that the testing equipment operates safely and precisely within designated ranges. If the system reaches either the lower or upper limit, these switches trigger a response to halt or adjust motion, preventing any movement that could exceed safe operational limits.

This function is especially beneficial in dynamic and repetitive testing environments, where unintentional overextension or compression could damage both the soil sample and the testing equipment. By automatically enforcing these boundaries, the limit switch motion control feature increases the durability and reliability of the system, providing users with confidence that each test is conducted within safe, controlled parameters. This safeguard is necessary for consistent, high-quality results and contributes to Dynamic Triaxial Systems' long-term operational integrity.
