ATI Industrial Automation Develops Force/Torque Sensor Less Than 8 mm Tall

ATI Industrial Automation (Apex, NC) has developed an ultra-thin, force/torque sensor, the Mini43LP, to provide high-precision force sensing in a rugged, compact transducer.

Posted: October 25, 2021

The new sensor is less than 8 mm tall, so it's suitable for smaller automated applications.

ATI said that the low-profile sensor 1) allows users to optimize their work envelope and preserve a robot’s lifting power for end-of-arm tools and 2) features a bolt-down mounting pattern to minimize stack height, an angled cable exit to eliminate interference with adjacent equipment, and a large through-hole for simplified utility management.

ATI added that the sensor is an ideal force sensing option for small delicate operations, such as the assembly of electronic components or optics, product research and testing applications, laboratory automation, robotic surgery, and more.

The Mini43LP is compatible with all of ATI’s existing communication interfaces and integrates with miniature robot models from Mecademic, Yaskawa, and others.

ATI Industrial Automation develops robotic accessories and robot-arm tooling.
