Force-Torque Sensor from Robotiq

Robotiq serves all industries of robotics and offers with its F-/T-Sensor:

  • Integrated compatibility with the CB series from Universal Robots
  • Constant force and stiffness in each axis
  • Precise, repeatable and high-resolution measurements
  • High accuracy due to stiff metal composition
  • Resetting the sensor value

In addition to F/T sensors, Robotiq also offers gripping systems, joint cameras and grinding kits.

In order to operate this sensor with drag&bot, additional hardware is required

  • A Modbus to USB converter allows the connection to a PC
  • Communication with the gripper is via Modbus
  • The Modbus protocol was originally invented in 1979 and is a communication protocol based on a master/slave or client/server architecture

Why this force-torque sensor should be used with drag&bot

GRAPHICAL
CONTROL

Programming via drag and drop, no need for expensive training for robots

ALL
FUNCTIONS

“Driving until a certain force occurs” or “spiral search” with the FORCE module

How does the deployment work?

1. Hardware construction

The power box is mounted and wired to the robot flange

2. Installation

Configuration of the sensor is possible via web interface

3. Configuration drag&bot

In COMPONENT MANAGER, enter the model and IP address of the sensor

4. Let’s go!

With the drag&bot additional software FORCE, force-controlled movements of the robot are possible

Graphical user interface for every robot – drag&bot

  • COMPONENT MANAGER – Here the user configures the connected hardware. The installation of the corresponding drivers takes place automatically in the background.

  • BUILDER – Applications can be created from predefined function blocks using drag and drop.

  • WIZARDS – Graphical operating and input aids: Users can adapt function blocks to the specific requirements of their application without expert knowledge.

  • RUN VIEW – The created applications are executed here. With one click you return to the Builder and can extend and optimize the application.
