RAFI’s Joyscape is a space-saving platform that offers solutions for outdoor machinery using standard modules. This joystick is suitable for commercial and industrial applications such as industrial machinery, construction machinery, agricultural machinery, forestry machinery, and special vehicles. RAFI’s Joysticks are perfect for heavy outdoor machinery because they are made of stainless steel and are resistant to harsh environments.





According to Designworldonline.com, RAFI’s customizable joysticks have a scalable system integration technology due to their in-house software, electronics, and driver production. These Joysticks are characterized by a high degree of protection (IP67) and reliability, as well as low energy consumption. Thanks to the modular system, the joysticks can be adapted to various applications. They are also integrated with rotary encoders, rocker switches, and buttons.  


Customizable joysticks from RAFI have handles that can be easily shaped to the desired size and shape of a client using various high-quality materials. The handle is made from aluminum alloy, stainless steel, and plastic. All these materials are used for their strength and durability. 


RAFI’s customizable joysticks for outdoor machinery have Wear-free 3D Hall sensors or incremental encoders. The wear-free 3D Hall sensors used to measure the tilt and x and y movements of joysticks are highly precise and incredibly durable. The sensor is mounted on a custom-printed PCB directly to the joystick, which provides a very rigid structure for the sensor to function. 3D Hall sensors are especially suitable for use in rough conditions such as high vibrations.


Other than 3D hall sensors, RAFI’s Joysticks also have redundant sensors that provide an extra level of safety. The redundant sensors are essential for these joysticks because they allow for a degree of fault tolerance that would not be possible with only one sensor. For example, if one sensor fails, the other will continue to work and report its position even if it is not directly connected to the joystick’s axis.


The Joyscape joystick has an ergonomic design that makes it comfortable, even when working in extreme conditions. It comes with a grip to help prevent slipping during operation. It also allows users to operate the machine with ease without any effort on their part.


In addition to the robust design, it's also essential that the product can be easily installed in existing equipment. The installation process is simplified by using only two screws that go through the bottom of the PCB (instead of having to cut through the metal base) and by using an adhesive backing on both sides of each PCB so that it can be installed without any tools needed for installation. 


The joysticks can be supplied with special brackets for installation in various applications. They also have LED lighting, which illuminates the handles. This is an excellent addition to outdoor machinery. The handle of the Joystick is illuminated to make it easier for people to see and hold on to, even in the dark. The LEDs are also very bright, so you won't have to worry when working outside at night.


In conclusion, there is no doubt that quality joysticks can improve control for operators when using a machine. Therefore, if you need improved control of your outdoor machinery, be sure to check out RAFI!
