The MPG is stands for Manual Pulse Generator and also known as Jog Wheel Control or Remote MPG Handwheel. MPG is the CNC Machine tool remote control to jog any axis on the CNC machine. The MPG is designed for use in industrial CNC environments to make the man-machine interface safer, easier and faster. The MPG will hopefully makes manual jogging easy, smooth, precise and eliminates the need of axis buttons on the CNC controller.

The Axis Selector (top) and Micrometer Wheel (bottom)
The micrometer wheel which is located at the bottom of the MPG allows you to position any axis in a minimum increments of approximately 1 micron (0.001 mm or 0.0002"). The Axis Selector allows you to select any axis and manually jog the axis using the MPG. It is great to use it during tools height offset setting and setting up the part zero positions on the large CNC machine fast and easy.
The MPG itself was ergonomically designed that is easy to hold. Come with convenient hanger which can be mounted on the CNC controller or anywhere it is convenient and it also contains strong magnets in the base for mounting to steel surfaces.
