Curtiss-Wright Controls Industrial (CWCI) – a member of Curtiss-Wright Corporation and leaders in control devices and systems for industrial and medical vehicles and equipment – will be using its stand at the Agritechnica show in November to promote products from its three brands – Penny + Giles Controls, PG Drives Technology and Williams Controls. 

 

For Penny + Giles, the SRH and NRH ranges of rotary position sensors will be on show, including its recently-launched NRH275DR magnet-activated rotary position sensor, which features a slim, low-profile sensor housing and separate permanent magnet assembly. Also recently launched and on show are the ICT800 and ICT820 in-cylinder linear transducers, which build on the company’s existing ICT technology by integrating signal conditioning into the sensor’s flange to simplify installation, reduces interconnecting cabling and make the sensors suitable for intelligent mobile hydraulics. Other Penny + Giles products on show include the ruggedised JC1500 and JC8000 joystick controllers and STT range of tilt sensors.

 

PG Drives Technology will be promoting its i-Drive and C3 general purpose controllers at the show. Claimed by the company to be one of the most advanced and cost effective digital controllers available, the i-Drive has been designed specifically for applications including small materials handling devices. The company’s C3 is a compact and cost-effective AC controller for electric powered equipment/vehicles including small ride-on machinery. It is available with two power options (200A and 250A), is compatible with all types of AC induction motors, and is designed to meet EN1175, EN12895 and UL583 requirements.

 

For Williams Controls, a particular focus will be on its ability to provide bespoke versions of its electronic throttle controls and lever-operated and rotary electronic hand controls and the company will be exhibiting versions designed for customers including Caterpillar and NACCO Material Handling Group. The company’s standard ranges will also be on show including the heavy-duty WM526 electronic floor pedal, the multi-angle WM537 electronic floor pedal, the WM542 electronic suspended pedal and the WM-547 rotary hand control. Also featured will be the WM-580 CANbus joystick control, which has a self-centring lever, IP67 protection for the electronics, and 12 to 24Vdc supply. The WM-580 is fully-customisable with over 50 potential variations including an ergonomic right/left handle grip orientation and configurable buttons and thumbwheels.
