Robotic grip force measurement

Customer

Designers and users of industrial robots

Problem

To improve the precision of the grip in effort and position.

Solution

The use of 6-axis force transducers such as the K6D80 improves the performance, reliability and flexibility of industrial robots by providing a dual position and force control loop.

The high accuracy of the K6D80 sensor is achieved by the very rigid design, and an optimised calibration process.

Results and customer benefits

• Significant improvement in gripping sensitivity and accuracy
• Reduction of non-conformities and cycle times
• Early detection of defects by force feedback
• Drift measurement
