Joystick Controllers - Finger Operated - 2

The Penny+Giles range of finger operated joystick controllers have beendeveloped for the smooth, precise control of critical functions in a variety of industrial applications where a Human-Machine Interface (HMI) is required. Available in one, two or three axis configurations, the finger operated range has a choice of six different models, with ergonomic handle styles to enable superb proportional control. Each model has a range of selectable options for the most comprehensive matching of the joystick to your application. > ?Potentiometeric or Hall effect sensing?Single and multi-axis...

Joystick Controllers - Finger Operated - 3

The Penny+Giles joystick range are displacement joysticks that provide electricalsignals in direct proportion to the movement of the lever. Two different types ofsensing technology are utilised in the finger operated controller range. The JC025, JC030, JC100, JC120 and JC400 models use long life potentiometertracks with directional/center switching, and the JC2000 model uses non-contact Halleffect sensors. Potentiometric sensing Designed to interface with an electronic controller, the long-life potentiometer tracks generate analogue outputs withswitched reference signals that are...

By using design innovation, careful materials selection and extensive real-lifeapplications knowledge, Penny+Giles engineers have developed a range ofjoystick controllers that require no maintenance throughout an expected workinglife of greater than five million operations (fifteen million operations for theJC2000). We also fit standard electronic connectors to the majority of our joysticksto help reduce both your installation time and the potential for wiring errors duringyour manufacturing process. > Joysticks fitted with the long-life potentiometer tracks can have additionalresistors...

Joystick Controllers - Finger Operated - 6

Developed for applications where compact size and minimal above panel height is paramount, the JC025 and JC030 rockers arevery low profile whilst still providing precise fingertip control in one axis. The use of these rockers in a control panel allowsdesigners to develop very low profile assemblies whilst still maintaining the functionality of a much larger single axis joystick.These rockers have been designed for maintenance-free operation throughout an operating life of greater than five million operations. Typical applications include remote control chest packs, pendant controllers, low...

CSS M3-6) fitted to the back of the panel at opposite positions. The stand-offs are used in conjunction with four M3 x 6mm pan head screws. The panel cut-out and centers for the stand-offs are as shown in the panel mounting detail below. The recommended panel thickness is 3mm. The O ring supplied must be used to seal the JC025rocker...

Developed for applications where ergonomics and system integrity are paramount, the JC100 is a compact, low profile joystickthat provides smooth, precise fingertip control in one axis. The JC100 is sealed to IP66 to enable it to operate in extreme environments. With all the components contained within the handle, and standing only 70mm high, it is ideal for mounting in low profile panels and arm rests. Installation time has been reduced through the use of a standard electronic connector, and thejoystick has been designed for maintenance-free operation throughout its operating life of...

Developed for applications where ergonomics and system integrity are paramount, the JC120 is a minimum width, low profilejoystick that provides smooth, precise fingertip control in one axis with a choice of two lever lengths. The JC120 is sealed to IP66to enable it to operate in extreme environments. Standing only 54 or 64mm high, the JC120 is less susceptible to unintentional operation. With all of the components contained within the handle, it is ideal for mounting in low profile panels and arm rests.Installation time has been reduced through the use of a standard electronic connector,...
