Axioforce

Solutions / Robotics

A new class of force sensor for robotics.

Traditional load cells are rigid, heavy, and single-axis. Axiocell tactile sensors are soft, silicone, and sensitive in three dimensions — including shear, the signal that tells a gripper when to tighten or back off.

Concept render — your sensor would be built to your application.

A sensor that feels like a fingertip, not a bolt-on cell.

Axiocell is a soft magnetic-composite sensor — packaged in silicone, shaped to your geometry, and finished with a surface texture that suits the task. Because it measures force in 3D, it supports far richer control than “how hard am I squeezing?” alone.

  • Soft, flexible silicone construction — not a rigid load cell
  • True 3D force measurement, including shear for grip control
  • Surface textures tailored to the application — fingerprint-like ridges or smooth pads
  • Compact form factors designed around your end effector
  • Built on the same Axiocell smart-material platform as our force plates

Ready for your application.

Every deployment is its own job — your footprint, your compliance, your interface, your control stack. Contact us today to consult on tactile sensing that fits how you actually manipulate objects.
