Robot Force Sensor

Force Torque Sensors – FANUC Force Sensor for Precise Force Control

FANUC Force Sensors allow our robots the ability to sense applied force in multiple directions, while also enabling our robots to detect force and torque applied to the end effector in 6 degrees of freedom. This provides them with an almost human sense of touch and the ability to undertake work previously done by craftsmen. 4 different sizes of Force Sensors are available for 6-axis FANUC robots with payload capacities up to 250 kg. FANUC Force Sensors achieve maximum uptime by combining fewer parts with FANUC reliability. For faster processing they are completely integrated into the robot.

What is A Force Sensor Used for?

Force sensitive tasks such as assembly, fitting and weighing applications as well as deburring and polishing can be automated with the highly sensitive force control achievable through this fully integrated intelligent option. Equipped with a Force Sensor, robots are capable of precision assembly, contouring and measuring tasks across a vast number of manufacturing robot applications. Let our automation applications engineers help solve your robot force control challenges. Contact us today to be connected to our team.

Precise Insertion & Assembly
Insert workpieces into very exact tolerances to assemble gearboxes and other mechanical devices using phase matching for cogs and bearings.

Deburr Rough Castings
Parts are deburred precisely by compensating for dimensional deviations in unfinished parts such as castings.

Polishing & Grinding
Grind and polish metal parts by measuring the force applied and controlling the robot’s motion path in real time to keep the tool pressed to the part with constant force.

Sanding & Contouring
Achieve the perfect robotically sanded finish to your parts. FANUC force sensors achieve maximum uptime by combining a simple design involving fewer parts with FANUC reliability.
