6-Axis Force and Torque Sensor for UFACTORY xArm & 850 Arms

6-axis measurement for force control, assembly and robotic experimentation

• 6-axis measurement: simultaneous acquisition of forces and torques along Fx, Fy, Fz, Tx, Ty, Tz.
• Data rate: 200 Hz.
• Load capacity: up to 400 N on Fx / Fy, 400 N on Fz and 20 Nm on Tx / Ty / Tz.
• Resolution: 0.4 N on the force axes and 0.01 Nm on the torque axes.
• Compatibility: UFACTORY xArm Series and UFACTORY 850.
• Integrated Python API: access to control functions and raw data.
• Mechanical integration: mounting on the robot’s tool flange with a dedicated signal hub.
• Compact format: approximately 600 g with adapter.

This 6-axis sensor makes it possible to add direct measurement of robot / environment interaction in applications where position-only control is not sufficient. It can be used to monitor contact forces, adjust a manipulation behavior, record experimental data or develop force control strategies. Control functions are available via the Python SDK and C++ SDK, with commands for sensor activation, zeroing, control mode selection and reading filtered or raw data. For a research or engineering team, the main interest is to have a sensor directly integrated into the xArm ecosystem, with data that can be used for development, testing and advanced automation.

It can be integrated on a UFACTORY arm for assembly trials, constrained manipulation, contact control or experimental calibration. It is also relevant in academic or industrial settings for projects that require a force measurement loop operating at a fixed frequency, with access to compensated values and the sensor’s native data.
