How Precision Sensors are Driving the Robotic Revolution

Interface measurement sensor technologies provide crucial data that enables robots to function correctly in various environments. Load cells, torque transducers, and multi-axis sensors act as the sense of touch, quality controller, articulation master, and fail-safe robot monitors in robotics. From industrial arms to mobile autonomous robots, Interface sensors are fundamental in design, test, and performance monitoring.

Types of Robots Using Interface Sensors

Interface load cells and torque transducers are commonly used in the design and testing of robots to measure and monitor forces and loads experienced by various robot components. Load cells are used to measure the forces exerted by robotic arms and grippers, while torque transducers are used to measure the torque generated by motors. Multi-axis load cells are growing in use with robotic engineers throughout the R&D phases for more measurement data to make smarter decisions in design and use of the robot. 
Cobots Case Study

Collaborative Robots Using Interface Sensors

Cobots are typically equipped with sensors technologies that allow them to detect the presence of humans and react accordingly. Force measurement sensors are often used in collaborative robots to provide feedback on the force being applied during a task. There are several types of force measurement sensors that can be used in cobots, including load cells, torque transducers, miniature load cell load buttons and multi-axis sensors.
