HEX-E/H QC

Product catalog summary

General Overview:
The document provides technical specifications for the HEX-E QC and HEX-H QC 6-Axis Force/Torque Sensor Units. These sensors are designed for applications requiring precise force and torque measurements.

1. HEX-E QC Specifications:

Nominal Capacity: Fxy and Fz at 200 N, Txy at 10 Nm, Tz at 6.5 Nm.
Single Axis Deformation: Typical values range from ±1.7 mm to ±0.067°.
Overload Capacity: 500% for all axes.
Signal Noise and Resolution: Typical noise is 0.035 N and 0.15 Nm; resolution is 0.2 N and 0.8 Nm.
Environmental Conditions: IP67 rated, operating temperature from 0°C to 55°C, and relative humidity up to 95%.
Re-calibration: Recommended every 15,000 hours.

2. HEX-H QC Specifications:

Nominal Capacity: Fxy and Fz at 200 N, Txy at 20 Nm, Tz at 13 Nm.
Single Axis Deformation: Typical values range from ±0.6 mm to ±0.023°.
Overload Capacity: 500% for Fxy, 400% for Fz, 300% for Txy and Tz.
Signal Noise and Resolution: Typical noise is 0.1 N and 0.2 Nm; resolution is 0.5 N and 1 Nm.
Environmental Conditions: IP67 rated, operating temperature from 0°C to 55°C, and relative humidity up to 95%.
Re-calibration: Recommended every 7,500 hours.

3. Comparison and Applications:

HEX-E QC: Recommended for applications requiring higher sensitivity, such as force control-based tasks like sanding and pin insertion.
HEX-H QC: Suitable for applications needing higher payload or tool length.
Graphs indicate payload and tool length compatibility for high and moderate precision applications.

4. Additional Notes:

Both sensors have a calculated Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) of 30,000 hours.
Complex loading scenarios reduce nominal capacities, and sensors should not operate outside the Normal Operating Area.

Operating Conditions Re-calibration period* *Notification is provided when factory re-calibration is recommended. Complex Loading During single-axis loading, the sensor can be operated up to its nominal capacity. Above the nominal capacity the reading is inaccurate and invalid. During complex loading (when more than one axis is loaded) the nominal capacities are reduced. The following diagrams show the complex loading scenarios. The sensor cannot be operated outside of the Normal Operating Area (marked with blue on the diagrams below). 1.3. HEX-E QC and HEX-H QC Comparison When the sensor is...

Applications requiring high precision (e.g.: force control based applications like Sanding and Pin Insertion) Other applications (e.g.: part detection, force monitoring) In the blue region it is recommened to use only the HEX-E QC.
