ATI Industrial Automation develops the Mini43LP ultra-thin Force/Torque Sensor for compact, high-precision applications

ATI Industrial Automation has developed the ultra-thin Mini43LP Force/Torque Sensor, providing high-precision force sensing in a rugged, yet compact transducer. At less than 8 mm tall, the newest member of ATI’s force/torque sensor product family is uniquely suited for smaller automated applications.

APEX, N.C. October 25, 2021 - ATI Industrial Automation has developed the ultra-thin Mini43LP Force/Torque Sensor, providing high-precision force sensing in a rugged, yet compact transducer. At less than 8 mm tall, the newest member of ATI's force/torque sensor product family is uniquely suited for smaller automated applications.


The low profile sensor body allows users to optimize their work envelope and preserve the robot's lifting power for end-of-arm tools. The streamlined design features a bolt-down mounting pattern to minimize stack height, an angled cable exit to eliminate interference with adjacent equipment, and a large through-hole for simplified utility management.

ATI's Mini43LP can enhance the accuracy and repeatability of research and development, product validation, assembly, and other micro force sensing applications. It is the ideal force sensing option for small delicate operations such as the assembly of electronic components or optics, product research and testing applications, laboratory automation, robotic surgery, and more.
The Mini43LP is the thinnest six-axis force/torque sensor available, combining the superior accuracy and strength of ATI's renowned force/torque sensors in an ultra-thin package. The Mini43LP is compatible with all of ATI's existing communication interfaces and integrates easily with miniature robot models from Mecademic, Yaskawa, and others.

3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!

3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!

This compact 3D camera series combines a very short working distance, a large field of view and a high depth of field - perfect for bin picking applications. With its ability to capture multiple objects over a large area, it can help robots empty containers more efficiently. Now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems. In the color version of the Ensenso B, the stereo system is equipped with two RGB image sensors. This saves additional sensors and reduces installation space and hardware costs. Now, you can also choose your model to be equipped with two 5 MP mono sensors, achieving impressively high spatial precision. With enhanced sharpness and accuracy, you can tackle applications where absolute precision is essential. The great strength of the Ensenso B lies in the very precise detection of objects at close range. It offers a wide field of view and an impressively high depth of field. This means that the area in which an object is in focus is unusually large. At a distance of 30 centimetres between the camera and the object, the Z-accuracy is approx. 0.1 millimetres. The maximum working distance is 2 meters. This 3D camera series complies with protection class IP65/67 and is ideal for use in industrial environments.
