ATI Industrial Automation (USA) is the de-facto standard for six-axis force/torque sensing in robotics. The Mini40 uses silicon strain-gauge technology with 25 NIST-traceable calibration ratings, ±0.003% FS repeatability and IP60/65/68 options, widely used for collaborative polishing, assembly and force-control research.
COMPONENT
ATI Industrial Automation (USA) is a world leader in robot tooling and force/torque sensing. The Gamma 6-axis F/T sensor is machined from high-strength aircraft aluminum with silicon strain gages producing a signal 75x stronger than foil gages for near-zero noise. Ratings span SI-32-2.5 to SI-130-10 (32-130 N Fxy, 100-400 N Fz, 2.5-10 N·m), with 6.9-31.6x rated overload (±1200 N Fxy, ±4100 N Fz, ±79 N·m Txy, ±82 N·m Tz), IP60/IP65/IP68 (10 m) versions, 0.255 kg, Ø75.4 mm x 33.3 mm, 1400-2000 Hz resonant frequency, 16-bit DAQ / EtherCAT / Net / WNet systems and NIST-traceable calibration; used for real-time force control, robotic assembly, haptics and part testing.
