AL-04 single axis with 2° axes options

The AL-04 single axis with 2° axes joystick family can be customized with the following options:

• friction (position hold)
• color knob or panel
Every cableless or cable control system can have each joystick configured in a different way in relationship of the requests with the machine and its application.

FRICTION (POSITION HOLD)
There is the possibility to have the various versions of AL-04 joystick with friction (position hold) function. The weight change to 132 g.
COLOR KNOB OR PANEL
The AL-04 model allows the customization of the panel on the top of the knob. Black panel is the standard, instead a different panel is available after a contact with MTEC staff.
