2.6 Transducer
The transducer is a compact, durable, monolithic structure that converts force and torque into analog strain
gage signals. The transducer is commonly used as a wrist sensor mounted between a robot and a robot end-
effector.
shows the transducers with a standard tool adapter.
Large Gamma, Delta, Theta, and Omega transducers have integrated interface electronics and require a
separate cable to connect to a power supply box. Small Nano and Mini transducers do not have integrated
interface electronics but have an integrated cable to connect to an interface power supply box
For further information, refer to the 9620-05-Transducer Section— Installation, Operation Manual for
mounting, cable routing, specifications (i.e., resolution, weight), and mechanical drawings.

2.7 Transducer Cable
The high-flex life transducer cable is electrically shielded to protect transmission from the transducer Power
Supply or Interface Power Supply boxes. Small transducers have the cable integrally attached. Larger
transducers have a separate transducer cable, see
Refer to the 9620-05-Transducer Section— Installation, Operation Manual for cable routing and minimum
bend radius.
