ATI Develops Ultra-Thin Force/Torque Sensor
Mini43LP Sensor is Uniquely Suited for Smaller Automated Applications
ATI Industrial Automation reveals the newest offering from their Force/Torque Sensor (F/T) product family. The ultra-thin Mini43LP F/T sensor provides reliable force sensing in a rugged yet compact transducer. At less than 8 mm tall, it 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.

uEye XC AUTOMATICALLY PERFECT IMAGES
Combining the ease of use of a webcam with the performance and reliability of an industrial camera? The uEye XC autofocus camera from IDS Imaging Development Systems proves that this is possible. Its high-resolution imaging, simple setup and adaptability make it an invaluable tool for improving quality control and streamlining workflows in industrial settings - especially for cases where users would normally employ a webcam. The uEye XC autofocus camera features a 13 MP onsemi sensor and supports two different protocols: USB3 Vision, which enables programmability and customization, and UVC (USB Video Class). The UVC functionality enables a single cable connection for easy setup and commissioning, while delivering high-resolution images and video. This makes the uEye XC camera an ideal option for applications that require quick setup and need to manage variable object distances. Additional features such as digital zoom, automatic white balance and color correction ensure precise detail capture, which is essential for quality control.
