Electronic handwheel for machine-tool Soft Servo Systems Inc

The HW-100 handwheel is a handheld manual pulse generator with an emergency switch for manual jog operation of the machine or machine tool. It controls five axes, with incremental movements of 1, 10, 100 or 1000 encoder counts per click. It requires a VersioBus adapter board to connect directly and simply to the host PC.

The HW-100 handwheel is an optional but useful component: every general motion control and CNC application provided by Soft Servo Systems includes a Handwheel Mode (a control mode where you use the handwheel to operate one axis of the machine tool at a time).

Of course, our products being as versatile as they are, any handwheel will work in a system that includes a VersioBus adapter board. But we've found the HW-100 to be comfortable and easy to use.
