6-DOF Torque & Force Measurement

HBK’s custom 6-DOF Torque/Force sensors are engineered for complex OEM applications, they ensure reliable performance even in demanding environments.

Multi-axis precision – Crosstalk reduced to <1% between axes, guaranteeing signal integrity.
Rugged design – Operating range from –20 °C to +100 °C, with IP65 protection for harsh environments.
Compact & integrable – Optimized for constrained spaces, with a wide power supply range (5–30 VDC) for easy OEM system integration.

This makes HBK 6-DOF multiaxis sensors the ideal choice for robotics, medical robotics, logistic, and off-highway applications where space, precision, and durability are critical.

Multiaxis custom Sensor - Applications Example

Medical robots – Multi-DOF sensing for surgical precision and haptic feedback.
Robotics & cobots – 6-axis force-torque sensors for assembly, pick & place, and quality control.
Aerospace & off-highway – Multiaxis load sensing in testing and heavy-duty systems.
