FT 300 Force Torque Sensor - Instruction Manual
74
Caution
The recommended threshold represents the smallest variations that can be detected by the sensor.
The signal noise is the limiting factor for the Sensor's precision. is greater than the Sensor's resolution, thus it For the FT 300, the
signal noise defined in the signal specifications is the standard deviation of each data (Fx, Fy, Fz, Mx, My, Mz) over 1 second. In
order to use that signal noise information, three times the standard deviation given must be used. According to the normal
distribution, three times the standard deviation will cover almost all values possible (99.7%).
Info
Noise is an unwanted and unpredictable alteration to a signal. It may come from electrical or electromagnetic sources
and degrades the quality of the Sensor's signal.
