At Compotech, we closely follow advancements in sensor technology. One of the most exciting innovations in recent years comes from our supplier Novanta and their subsidiary ATI Industrial Automation, who have introduced a new series of Torque/Force sensors.
These sensors measure forces and torques across multiple axes simultaneously. This enables it possible process optimization, reduced energy consumption, and longer lifetimes for both machines and tools. The result is higher productivity and lower resource use – a practical step toward more sustainable manufacturing.
ATI Industrial Automation, part of Novanta Inc., is a global company focused on advanced technologies for automation, medical devices, and industrial applications. With more than 30 years of experience, ATI has become a world leader in force and torque sensing, known for reliability and continuous innovation.
The sensors are already used in a wide range of advanced applications – from robots and humanoids that require a sense of touch to handle objects naturally, to precision assembly, medical instruments, and test benches in the automotive and aerospace industries. In every setting, they help improve safety, productivity, and sustainability.
As Novanta’s partner in the Nordic region, Compotech offers local support, technical know-how, and integration expertise to ensure each solution performs optimally in its intended application.
With ATI’s sensors, developers and engineers gain access to precise, real-time data that helps them understand, control, and refine their processes with confidence.
