Force-Torque Sensors

Omega160 Force/Torque Sensor

Omega160 Force/Torque Sensor, 2500 N / 400 Nm Payload, Analog (+/-10V), 20-pin Hirose Connector

  • 6-Axis Force/Torque Sensing – Measures force and torque in all six degrees of freedom (Fx, Fy, Fz, Tx, Ty, Tz) with ranges up to 2500 N force and 400 Nm torque, perfect for torque-intensive applications
  • Form Factor – Industrial-grade design with embedded electronics ensures broad platform compatibility with industrial platforms, with with the precision and reliability for surgical robotics
  • Analog Output (+/-10V) – Provides simple, real-time force and torque feedback compatible with most PLCs, controllers, and data acquisition systems.
  • Extremely-High Strength – EDM wire-cut from high yield-strength stainless steel. Maximum allowable overload values are 4.2 to 15.2 times rated capacities.
  • High Signal-to-Noise Ratio – Silicon strain gages provide a signal 75 times stronger than conventional foil gages. This signal is amplified, resulting in near-zero noise distortion.
  • IP20 Rated for Controlled Environments – Provides basic protection against solid objects, ideal for use in clean, dry, and enclosed industrial or lab settings

Accuracy values vary depending on the axis of measurement. For detailed specifications and axis-specific accuracy data, please contact our sales team.
The effective sample rate is determined by the DAQ device in use. Specifically, the sensor sample rate equals the DAQ device’s total data rate divided by six (6) channels; one for each axis of force and torque. For additional assistance, please contact our sales or engineering team.
