New robust mid-sized joystick

26 October 2022 Switches, Relays & Keypads

The new XP joystick series from Apem combines a two-axis multi-function handle and strength in a compact package. These ergonomic mid-sized palm joysticks are available with multifunction configurable handles and are IP67 rated. With an all-metal body construction, and having the integrated electronics sealed, makes them suitable for use on both indoor and outdoor equipment.

The joysticks have a push-to-shut-off, twist-to-release mechanism and are available with analog and CAN output signals. The multifunction handle has various options available for a variety of applications and offers a mechanical life greater than ten million life cycles. The stainless-steel shaft is surrounded by a nylon handle with a neoprene boot at the base.

The spring-return self-centring joysticks are suited for integration into applications such as arm rests and vehicle cabins, and core targets include agriculture, construction, material handling, and specialist vehicles.
