About Gamma F/T Transducer

ATI’s Gamma transducer resolves forces along three axes and torques around three axes for robot wrists, test fixtures and haptic systems. Silicon strain gauges generate a stronger signal than conventional foil gauges, and each calibration is traceable to the US National Institute of Standards and Technology. Available calibrations set different sensing ranges for the same mechanical family.

The aluminium body measures 75.4 millimetres in diameter and 33.3 millimetres high with standard interface plates, at a listed mass of 0.255 kilograms. Environmental versions include IP60, IP65 and fresh-water-submersible IP68 configurations rated to 10 metres. ATI lists force control, robotic assembly, automotive testing, prosthetics and haptic feedback among the applications; capacity and resolution must be selected from the exact calibration and must not be combined into one universal maximum.
