CH Products

CH Products makes flight simulator yokes and industrial control devices. The company is based in Vista, California, United States. Its product range includes flight yokes, industrial joysticks, fingertip controls, trackballs and handgrip controllers. CH Products has worked with joystick and motion control technology for more than 30 years. Its background in industrial control systems is also relevant to people interested in physical controls for flight simulation.

Flight Simulator Yokes

CH Products lists flight yokes among its product ranges.

A flight yoke is a physical control used to simulate the movement of an aircraft's control column. It gives users a way to operate a flight simulator through hand movements rather than relying only on a keyboard.

For people interested in building a simulator cockpit, a yoke is one of the main controls to consider.

It provides a different way to interact with a simulated aircraft compared with a conventional computer controller.

CH Products combines its flight control range with experience developing joysticks and other motion control devices.

The company's work in this area connects flight simulation equipment with the wider field of industrial controls.

Joysticks and Motion Control Technology

CH Products has manufactured industrial joysticks and Hall effect control devices for more than three decades.

Its product range includes fingertip joysticks, industrial trackballs and handgrip controllers.

These devices allow users to control movement or interact with equipment through physical inputs.

CH Products was among the early manufacturers to introduce Hall effect sensing into motion control devices.

Hall effect technology uses magnetic sensing to detect changes in control position.

The company's history with this technology forms part of its wider experience in designing and manufacturing control equipment.

Engineering and Product Development

CH Products uses electrical, mechanical and industrial engineering in its product development work.

Its engineering teams use software for designing parts and preparing them for manufacturing.

The tools listed by the company include SolidWorks for 3D modeling, Mastercam and Cadence OrCAD.

These programs support different stages of engineering, from mechanical design to electronic development.

The company also describes the use of quality management systems in its manufacturing operations.

Its manufacturing facilities have held ISO 9001:2008 quality certification.

CH Products and APEM

CH Products is connected with APEM, a manufacturer of products used to control and interact with machines.

APEM began manufacturing switches and switch panels in 1952.

The company has 13 manufacturing facilities across four continents.

This wider manufacturing background includes switches, control panels and other equipment designed for human interaction with machines.

CH Products contributes experience in joysticks and motion controls to this field.

For pilots and flight simulator enthusiasts, CH Products is of interest because of its flight yokes and long experience with physical control devices. Its engineering background connects simulator controls with technologies also used in industrial equipment.
