Electronic handwheel

Description
The portable electronic handwheel is intended for use directly at the machine. A magnetic
bracket and spiral connection cable can be found on its enclosure. The magnetic bracket
(retaining magnet) enables the handwheel to be attached to metallic surfaces.
The portable electronic handwheel is an incremental encoder that generates signals according
to how the manually operated wheel is rotated. The handwheel's magnetic latching facility
enables increment-precise traversing. The axis selected via the control can be positioned so
that the axes are parallel. The portable handwheel offers a PPR count of 100 S/R.
For safe storage on non-magnetic surfaces, a holder (Page 183) is available.
