#431790 FT 300 force torque sensorRobotiq Updates FT 300 Sensitivity For High Precision Tasks With Universal Robots Quebec City, Canada, November 13, 2017 – Robotiq launches a 10 times more sensitive version of its FT 300 Force Torque Sensor. With Plug + Play integration on all Universal Robots, the FT 300 performs highly repeatable precision force control tasks such as finishing, product testing, assembly and precise part insertion. This force torque sensor comes with an updated free URCap software able to feed data to the Universal Robots Force Mode. “This new feature allows the user to perform precise force insertion assembly and many finishing applications where force control with high sensitivity is required” explains Robotiq CTO Jean-Philippe Jobin*. The URCap also includes a new calibration routine. “We’ve integrated a step-by-step procedure that guides the user through the process, which takes less than 2 minutes” adds Jobin. “A new dashboard also provides real-time force and moment readings on all 6 axes. Moreover, pre-built programming functions are now embedded in the URCap for intuitive programming.” See some of the FT 300’s new capabilities in the following demo videos: #1 How to calibrate with the FT 300 URCap Dashboard #2 Linear search demo #3 Path recording demo Visit the FT 300 webpage or get a quote here Get the FT 300 specs here Get more info in the FAQ Get free Skills to accelerate robot programming of force control tasks.
