Penny + Giles has launched its new robust, hand operated JC8000 joystick for multi-axis operator control of off-highway vehicles that require a high strength controller able to operate in the most arduous, physically demanding working conditions. The compact joystick – with an under panel depth of just 70 mm – has a smaller footprint than equivalent heavy duty joysticks and uses Hall-effect sensing technology to provide analogue voltage or digital (PWM and CAN bus J1939) outputs, with a range of handles and grips. Key features:

• Rugged design with superior lever strength
• Single or Dual axis control
• Range of ergonomic handle designs
• Hall Effect sensing
• Analog or Digital (PWM or CAN bus J1939) outputs
• Sealed above panel to IP66 (depending on handle selection)
• Superb proportional control
• Easily installed and interchangeable with models JC600 & JC6000.
