2. Product Overview
The DAQ Force/Torque sensor system is a multi-axis force and torque sensor system that simultaneously measures
forces (Fx, Fy, and Fz) and torques (Tx, Ty, and Tz). Components are available for Single TW Transducer DAQ
Systems, TIF Transducer DAQ Systems, and Multiple TW Transducer DAQ Systems. Other equipment is available
such as rack mounted equipment, BNC interface boxes, IP rated Transducers, IP rated cables, OEM interface
boards, cable extensions, and many DAQ device and card options.
