Cam Timers

Precise electromechanical timing for controlled sequencing and repeatable motion
Modular Customisation

Accurate, Repeatable Timing for Mechanical Sequencing

Rotalink cam timers provide a reliable method of controlling timed events within compact mechanisms. Using a rotating cam profile paired with precision-built contacts, each timer delivers consistent switching sequences that remain stable throughout its operating life.

This makes them ideal for applications that demand predictable actuation without the complexity of electronic controllers.

  • Accurate, repeatable timing cycles
  • Reliable switching using mechanical cam and contact design
  • Simple integration with Rotalink gearmotors
