VNS0 joystick: the Allrounder

The VNS0 is a very robust joystick with an aluminium pressure casted console and metal gears. The device is resistant against ozone, UV radiation, oil and maritime climate. The VNS0 joystick is very suitable for heavy duty operations, also in Ex-areas.

The VNS0 is available as single and compound axis drive. The intelligent modular design allows customized solutions for contact elements: up to 12 units, with two switching contacts per element. These contacts can be flanged in the x, y and z axis or can be placed in series.

A maximum of nine contact elements can be implemented with spring return and notches. Customers can choose different types of notches and cams from an extensive portfolio. The cams and notches can be programmed according to customer requirements.

Silver or gold contacts are optional. The hollow handle shaft is made of a special alloy and has a 8 mm diameter. This enables the assembly of a wide range of handles and offers the possibility of guiding cables through the joystick. Rotational movements are possible thanks to certain handle options.

A special coupling system enables the possibility for flanged mounting of various potentiometers and absolute encoders. Also, a variety of printed circuit boards is available for the implementation of bus systems. Nameplates can be made according to customer requirements (optional).
