ATI force-torque sensor
Industrial-grade six-axis force-torque sensor used for high-precision assembly, deburring, and finishing tasks requiring accurate force feedback.
ATI's force-torque sensors are widely used in industrial applications that need reliable force feedback at higher loads and duty cycles than typical cobot force sensors, including robotic deburring, polishing, and precision assembly on 6-axis industrial arms.
The sensor connects to the robot controller or a dedicated ATI NetBox interface over EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, or EtherCAT, streaming force and torque data fast enough for closed-loop force control during contact-based tasks.
Because these sensors are sold as standalone hardware rather than tied to one robot brand's software ecosystem, integrators typically write custom force-control logic rather than relying on a built-in plugin.
