Using Multi-Axis Sensors to Bring Robotics to Life

/

March 7, 2023

Multi-axis sensors provide several benefits for use in robotics, as they allow for accurately measuring the robot's position, orientation, and movement. Interface offers a wide variety of multi-axis sensor options including 2-axis, 3-axis, 6-axis, and axial torsion load cell sensors. The benefits of using multi-axis sensors aligns to the advancements in robotics, as the expectations to do more means more data is needed to thoroughly test and measure every capability and interaction with accuracy.

Off-Axis Loading 101

/

March 2, 2023

Off-axis loading can affect the accuracy of load cell measurements, so it is important to take steps to protect against it. To minimize the effects of off-axis loading, load cells are often designed with measures to reduce sensitivity to forces applied in other directions. These may include mechanical features such as strain relief structures or specialized materials that are more resistant to off-axis loading. Additionally, load cells are often installed and used in ways that minimize the likelihood of off-axis loading, such as aligning the primary sensing axis with the direction of the applied force.
