MR Series Finger joystick
Compact potentiometer-based finger joystick for precise multi-axis control in demanding industrial and measurement environments. Designed for reliability, low operating force, and excellent EMI resistance.
Key features
- Potentiometer-based joystick with high EMI resistance
- Available in 2 or 3 axis configurations
- Compact, low-profile mechanical design
- Multiple handle and mounting options
- Suitable for high magnetic field environments
Performance highlights
The MR Series finger joystick delivers stable and proportional analog output using precision conductive plastic potentiometers. This design ensures predictable control behavior, even in electrically noisy or high magnetic field environments where alternative sensing technologies may struggle.
Usage conditions
Designed for continuous industrial use, the joystick operates reliably across a wide temperature range and supports spring-return centering on all axes. The low operating force allows accurate finger control, reducing operator fatigue in repetitive or long-duration applications.
Possible applications
- Measurement systems
- Robotic systems
- CCTV and PTZ camera control
- Machine and conveyor control
- Wheelchair and assistive control systems
- High magnetic field environments
Advantages of choosing this product
By combining a compact form factor with flexible configuration options, the MR Series integrates easily into both new designs and retrofit projects. Multiple handle styles, mounting options, and axis configurations allow engineers to tailor the joystick to their exact application requirements.
Other important features
- Conductive plastic potentiometers per axis
- Spring return centering on X, Y, and optional Z axis
- Pre-soldered pigtail wire termination
- Optional push buttons integrated in handle
- IP-rated handle options available
