Industrial Joysticks

Both standard and custom solutions can be produced based on our modular principle. The sturdy metal cast drive block used as standard by Spohn + Burkhardt assures a long service life and high number of switching cycles. Including spring-return to center, friction brake and mechanical interlocking, the modular concept enables a wide range of options and variations. We provides this joystick in versions either engaging in 5-0-5 step output or with spring-return. A combined version with locking contact positions and momentary contact positions is also possible. Equipped with micro-switches, double contact elements, potentiometers, or absolute encoders, it can be used for a wide range of demanding control tasks. With an integrated bus interface, it works just as reliably as a bus node as with a valve amplifier for activation of solenoid valves. The comprehensive handle assortment completes this joystick with optical and tactile features. Depending on installation dimensions, we recommend the ST2 as a shorter variant with a lower profile than the standard ST0. This joystick is frequently used in control consoles, construction machinery, municipal vehicles, and in work platforms.
