Force and load sensors covers electrical sensing devices used to measure tension, compression, and shear forces

Force and torque instruments are used to measure force, weight or torque.

Six-axis force and torque sensors measure the full six components of force and torque: vertical, lateral, and longitudinal forces as well as camber, steer, and torque movements

Load cells are transducers for force and load measurement, often with mounting packaging.

Strain gauges are measuring elements that convert force, pressure, tension, etc.

Collision sensors are used to protect robots from colliding with other objects.

Shakers and shock and vibration testing equipment are force generators or transducers that provide a vibration, shock or modal excitation source for testing and analysis
