vedi sotto Explanation: devi distinguire se si tratta di una "battuta meccanica" o di un dispositivo elettrico/elettronico MC Graw Hill: end stop [ING MECC] fine corsa A limit to the movement of a mechanical system or part, usually brought about by valves or shock absorbers. limit switch [ELETTR] interruttore di fine corsa; fine corsa A switch designed to cut off power automatically at or near the limit of travel of a moving object controlled by electrical means. Il Marolli da le stesse soluzioni, tranne che il finecorsa inteso come "arresto meccanico" lo chiama semplicemente "stop". Ciao Ilde |
