Force and torque sensor Mini58

Overview
The Mini58 is a low-profile 6-axis force/torque sensor designed for direct integration via a through-hole form factor. It measures forces and torques in six degrees of freedom (Fx, Fy, Fz, Tx, Ty, Tz) and is intended for industrial and laboratory applications requiring high measurement bandwidth and low latency.

Key Features

• 6-axis sensing – Measures force and torque in Fx, Fy, Fz, Tx, Ty, Tz with ranges up to 2800 N (X/Y) and 120 Nm (X/Y).
• Through-hole low-profile form factor – Allows direct mounting on drive shafts and tooling.
• Analog output (±10 V) – Real-time compatibility with PLCs, controllers and DAQ systems.
• High-strength stainless steel construction – EDM wire-cut from high yield-strength stainless steel; rated overload factors from 4.9× to 21.0×.
• High signal-to-noise – Silicon strain gauges with amplification for low-noise measurement.
• Standard environmental rating IP20 – Suitable for clean, dry, enclosed environments; higher IP variants available.

Available configurations & examples

• Communication interfaces: Analog (±10 V), Analog (mV/V); optional digital/fieldbus variants (EtherCAT, RS485, EtherNet/IP, CAN, PROFINET, RS422) available on certain SKUs.
• Cable exit and lengths: axial, radial or tangential exits with typical lengths 1.8 m and 5 m.
• Interface plate ratings: IP20 standard; selected IP65/IP68 variants for harsher conditions.
• Connector options: 12-pin round Amphenol and other connector variants depending on model.
• Example model/SKU: Mini58-AE-1.8-IFPS.

Documents & resources
Technical drawings, detailed loading graphs and DAQ manuals (PDF) are available for system integration and validation.
