2dF Motus™ 2-Axis Force Sensor

Overview

A two-axis force sensor that detects force components in two mutually perpendicular in-plane directions, providing precise 2-D force feedback for robotic grasping, gripping and wearable interaction. Normal and tangential forces are measured at the same time, helping a robot identify contact intensity and force direction and handle soft, fragile or complex-shaped objects compliantly. The sensor combines a compact structure with integrated overload protection, high sensitivity and high strength. Multiple switchable measurement ranges match different load scenarios. Typical uses include force control for two-finger and multi-finger robotic grippers, human-machine interface force measurement on exoskeleton robots, and two-axis wrist force measurement with high-precision joint control feedback.
