Apem

All industrial machines require some form of man-machine interface, and APEM specialises in the manufacture of switches, joysticks, switch panels and indicators that perform this vital function. Initially established as a manufacturer of industrial switches in 1952, this French company has since expanded its product range to include miniature switches and switch panels. Through the acquisition of various companies in Europe and internationally, APEM further increased its product range to include joysticks, trackballs and other control devices. The company has ISO 90001-2008 certification for its quality management systems, it complies with the RoHS directive on hazardous substances and it has ISO 14001 environmental certification, which altogether demonstrate its commitment to the environment. APEM's product range of push-button switches and LED indicators is particularly large, providing customers with an incredible choice of coloured LED indicators suitable for use on DC and AC circuits. Similarly, the range of push-button switches covers almost every conceivable need and function, giving equipment designers enormous flexibility. Designers of advanced control systems will appreciate the range of joysticks, keypads and coding switches, which simplify the task of selecting the right equipment for automated systems, as well as the array of mains powered switches for control system activation.
