[0036] The limit switch system includes an angle sensor, a test axis of the angle sensor is connected to the rotating axis of the rotating plate 2, and the test axis coincides with the rotating axis of the rotating plate 2, so that the limit switch system can preset the angle required to rotate. After the angle sensor reaches a predetermined value, the limit switch system controls the motor 4 and the electric lock 5 to close, thereby realizing the multi-angle adjustment of the automatic workpiece angle swing tooling, the versatility of the automatic workpiece angle swing tooling, and improving the processing accuracy of the workpiece. The model of the angle sensor is Bourns 3590S, and the limit switch system adopts 802T series limit switches.
