Twist-Handle Control

Dec. 13, 2007
The large-displacement MG25 twist handle control gives operators intuitive control in applications requiring rotational or bidirectional motion.

The ±75° displacement gives the operator smooth, wide-resolution control. The output signal is from a long life, conductive plastic potentiometer integrated into the cylindrical finger or hand-operated handle. The handle can be mounted to the Pro-4, 5, and 6 Series; CS1, VCS2, CS3, and XLVNSO joysticks for up to three axis of coordinated control.
