A hydraulic control lever directly controls a valve through mechanical linkages or hydraulic lines. Its structure is simple, but the piping is complex, response can be delayed, and electronic functions are difficult to integrate.

An electronic joystick converts the operator's movement into electrical signals (analog, switching, or CAN bus signals),

transmits them to the controller, and the controller then drives the actuator.

Key differences:

• Simpler wiring, with no risk of hydraulic-line leakage

• Supports the integration of multiple axes and buttons, providing high functional density

• Works with the machine's electronic control system to enable coordinated control, safety interlocks, and other advanced functions

• Easier maintenance, with faults that can be diagnosed digitally
