Overview
The Kunwei KWR75S series is a single-axis load cell for Fz force measurement in collaborative-robot applications. Its built-in data acquisition system provides a digital signal, while the 75 mm diameter and 33.5 mm height help with mechanical integration. Five versions offer capacities of 100, 200, 300, 400 or 800 N, allowing selection of the measurement range for the intended axial load.
Features
- Single-axis force measurement along Fz, with the positive measurement direction designated Z+ for KWR75S-100, KWR75S-200 and KWR75S-300.
- Built-in data acquisition system with digital signal output.
- 1000 Hz sampling frequency, 0.05% FS resolution and 0.1% FS precision.
- Anodized aluminum-alloy construction with IP65 protection.
- 300% FS overload rating.

Digital Communication
The series has digital output. Listed communication choices include RS422, RS485, Modbus, TCP, UDP, Industrial Ethernet, EtherCAT and USB. CAN is additionally listed for KWR75S-100, KWR75S-200 and KWR75S-300. Confirm the required communication implementation when selecting the sensor; these listings do not establish that every interface is present simultaneously.

Applications
- Collaborative-robot axial contact-force monitoring: measure force along Fz during contact tasks, using the selected 100, 200, 300, 400 or 800 N capacity to suit the intended load.
- Robot-tool force data acquisition: use the built-in acquisition system and 1000 Hz digital sampling to collect axial force data for integration into a robot application.
