Applications

Products

Marina joysticks

Den maritima industrin kräver kraftiga joysticks för tuffa och farliga miljöer (gas, damm och ånga). Delarna måste vara explosionsskyddade, tillförlitliga och egensäkra (ATEX).

Multi-operativa cobra joysticks

Cobra controllers med flera funktioner kan användas för att styra komplexa funktioner med inbyggda tryckknappar och potentiometrar för vipprörelse.

ATEX joysticks

Kraftiga joysticks med ATEX/IECEx-certifierade komponenter för farliga miljöer i zon 1.

Handjoysticks

Industriella handmanövrerade joysticks används för att styra tunga maskiner som kranar, vinschar, jordbruksmaskiner och entreprenadmaskiner. Dessa robusta joysticks har en liten inbyggnadsstorlek och erbjuder hög tillförlitlighet, smidig drift och lång förväntad livslängd. Detta skapar trygghet för maskinbyggare och operatörer!

Fingerjoysticks

  • Kan manövreras med fingret eller hela handen
  • För tillämpningar som rullstolar, robotar eller medicinska instrument
  • Hög precision

Mini joysticks

Miniatyrjoysticks och miniatyrtumsticks är de minsta joysticks som finns tillgängliga och är särskilt utformade för montering i trånga utrymmen samtidigt som de är robusta och mycket tillförlitliga.

Joysticks for ship control applications

Specialized vessels require robust and durable joysticks for controlling the vessel and onboard equipment. Our DP joysticks are used in DP systems to manually adjust the position and heading. The joysticks have a robust mechanism that offers great feelability and the redundant electrical output signals provide confidence in critical applications.

Custom remote controllers

Marine deck equipment, such as cranes, winches and material handling machines require robust single or multi-axis joysticks that can be operated by hand, finger or full hand grip.

Our custom remote controller offers precise control of vessel thrusters and deck equipment in a compact light weighted housing. The aluminium sealed housing (IP67) and redundant output options offer high reliability joysticks for maritime applications.
