6-Component Force Measurement Using a Dynamometer 

For a 6-component force measurement, the output signals 
of the four 3-component force sensors are interconnected 
as in Fig. 8.

he 6-component force measurement 

 

The Three Forces and Three Moments can be Calculated 
from the Eight Measuring Signals as Follows
