Overview
The Kunwei KWR75Ex series is an explosion-proof six-axis force/torque sensor for measuring forces and moments at robotic-arm interfaces. Its 75 mm diameter housing combines circular mounting faces, a central opening and side-mounted electrical connectors. Six versions provide different force and torque ranges, with body heights of 31.5 or 33.5 mm. Shared specifications include 500 Hz sampling, 0.03% FS resolution and an anodized aluminum-alloy housing.
Features
- Measures force along Fx, Fy and Fz and moments about Mx, My and Mz.
- Six range options: KWR75AEx, KWR75BEx, KWR75CEx, KWR75DEx, KWR75EEx and KWR75FEx.
- Circular mounting faces with mounting holes and a central opening; the mounting design supports compatibility with most cobot flanges.
- Side-mounted circular electrical connectors and positive-axis orientation markings.
- Anodized aluminum-alloy construction with IP64 protection and a working temperature range of −10 to 80 °C.
- 300% FS overload level, 0.1% FS repeatability and 0.5% FS accuracy* across all six versions.

Applications
- Robotic-arm contact-load measurement: Measure three force components and three moment components at a tool interface to characterize loads during contact tasks. The circular mounting faces and cobot-oriented mounting design support mechanical integration.
- Force and torque measurement fixtures: Record multi-axis loads at a 500 Hz sampling frequency. Select the version by its individual force and moment ranges, rather than applying one version’s maximum range to the entire series.

FAQ
How do the six KWR75Ex versions differ?
They differ in force range, moment range, body height and weight. KWR75EEx has 30 N ranges on all three force axes and 1.5 N·m ranges on all three moment axes. KWR75DEx has 500 N Fx/Fy, 700 N Fz and 18 N·m moment ranges. The specification table gives the separate values for every version.
Which versions have the lower body height?
KWR75AEx, KWR75BEx, KWR75EEx and KWR75FEx are 31.5 mm high. KWR75CEx and KWR75DEx are 33.5 mm high; all six versions have a 75 mm diameter.
What measurement axes does the sensor provide?
The sensor measures Fx, Fy and Fz forces and Mx, My and Mz moments, providing six-axis force/torque measurement.
