JC8000 - Heavy Duty Multi-Axis Joystick

Product catalog summary
Overview: The JC8000 is a heavy-duty multi-axis joystick designed for robust applications. It features a center detent for enhanced return-to-center performance and is rated for 5 million cycles. The joystick utilizes Hall-effect sensor technology and offers dual outputs with configurable sense options.
Design and Features: The joystick is designed with a minimized under-panel depth of 78mm and a low pivot-point position to reduce handle cable flex. It is electronically sealed to IP69K, ensuring high durability and reliability. The joystick can be supplied as a 'base-only' unit, allowing for custom handle fittings, and future models will include additional functionalities such as CAN bus interfaces.
Specifications:
  • Supply Voltage: 5Vdc ± 0.5Vdc
  • Output Voltage: Factory set options include 0.5–4.5V, 1.0–4.0V, and 1.25–3.75V
  • Current Consumption: 64mA
  • Mechanical Angle: ±16° on X- and Y-axes
  • Environmental Protection: IP66 above panel, IP69K electronics
  • Operating Temperature: -40°C to 80°C
  • Storage Temperature: -50°C to 85°C
Mechanical and Environmental Performance: The joystick has a breakout and operating torque of 1.2Nm, a maximum lever load of 240Nm, and an expected life of 5 million cycles. It complies with various EMC and ESD standards, ensuring robust performance in challenging environments.

JC8000 - Heavy Duty Multi-Axis Joystick-1

Heavy Duty Multi-Axis Joystick  Extremely robust design for arduous applications  Centre detent for enhanced return-to-center performance  Under panel depth has been minimized to 78mm  Pivot-point position minimizes handle cable flex  Rated for 5 million cycles  Hall-effect sensor technology  Dual outputs with sense options  Electronics sealed to IP69K  Can be supplied as ‘base-only’  More functions, e.g. CAN interface, to follow  Multiple handle options ... The JC8000 offers high mechanical strength for very heavy-duty applications and features a centre detent that provides guaranteed return-to-centre, as well as a positive feel to the operator, throughout 5 million cycles. While maintaining an overall minimum under-panel depth of the joystick body, the shaft pivot-point position has been designed to be as low as possible so as to ensure a high strength capability in the small body space envelope. This reduction in angular deflection reduces wear on base-to-handle wiring, so enhancing overall reliability. Hall-effect sensing eliminates contact wear and provides safety functionality via dual outputs, which can be set to positive or negative ramps, or a combination of both. Electronic robustness is assured with sealing of the internal PCB to a rating of IP69K. A choice of multi-function handles are available, plus the option of ‘base-only’ enabling custom handles to be fitted. Beyond this initial release, further models will be introduced to provide increased handle functionality, CAN bus interfaces and mechanical v
