OnRobot HEX-E v2
OnRobot HEX-E v2 is a 6-axis force/torque sensor mounted on the robot wrist, based on patented optical sensing technology rather than traditional strain gauges.
Measurement range ±200 N axial and ±10 N·m for torques (HEX-H variant extends to ±20 N·m). Built-in USB and Ethernet interfaces with direct integration into Universal Robots, ABB, KUKA, Fanuc and Yaskawa robots.
Sampling rate 500 Hz, accuracy <2% of full scale, resistance to sudden overloads. Used in polishing, sanding, deburring, precision assembly and path recording applications.

Which group OnRobot HEX-E v2 belongs to and how it is built
A Force Torque Sensor measures linear forces and rotational torques at a single measurement point. In robotics, it is particularly important in manipulators, robot wrists, grippers, and human–robot collaboration systems. It enables force control, contact detection, load monitoring, and improved safety and manipulation precision. Sensors of this type are widely used in assembly, laboratory, and research applications.
