Part of the cobot

Torque sensor

Strain gauges on a machined metal body that feel how hard the joint is pushing. Some cobots have one in every joint, others one at the tool flange.

The step · Motors and drives

A sensor body machined from high-strength aluminium, strain gauges fixed to it, and the electronics that read them; built into a joint to read the torque at its output, or fitted at the tool flange to read force and torque on six axes. Output: joint torque sensor (one per axis on the Doosan M1013) or one six-axis force and torque sensor at the tool flange (UR10e).
