The multi-component sensor K6D225 is suitable for the simultaneous force and torque measurement in three mutually perpendicular axes.
The measuring ranges for the forces and torques can be adapted in a wide range. The K6D225 was designed for the following applications:

• Robotics
• Measurements in automation technology
• Aerospace

The force/torque sensor has 12 output channels. Each 6 channels are arranged with a robust connector of series UP13.
The 12 measuring channels can be used for the

• optimal use of measurement accuracy in the range of 0.2% and better,
• for redundant measurement with two measuring amplifiers of series GSV-8DS.

Alternatively, the force/torque transducer can be operated with 6 channels. In this case, only a measurement amplifier of series GSV 8DS is required. The measurement accuracy is up to 20% of the measuring range in each component (FX and FY).

In conjunction with the measurement amplifier GSV-8DS the 12 measuring channels are optimally synchronized in a few nanoseconds time offset. Mathematically, a 6 x 12 matrix provides optimal error compensation and best possible accuracy.

The 6 x 12 matrix can be processed with the software GSVmulti to represent the forces and torques.

When using only 6 channels or redundant measuring the complete calculation of forces, torques and error compensation are proceed in the measuring amplifier GSV-8DS and given out as an analog signal. In this case, no PC and no external software is required.
