6-axis force torque sensor price & system cost worksheet
Compare the cost of a complete six-axis measurement configuration. Enter the amounts you have, keep missing costs visible and prepare one engineering RFQ with the sensor, interface and installation scope.
Sensor pricing is confirmed by written configuration quote. The worksheet below uses buyer entries; it does not publish an approved HXF sensor price or promise a delivery date.
1 / ONE CONFIGURATION · ONE CURRENCY
Build your six-axis system cost worksheet
Enter costs from one configuration quote. Blank means unknown. Enter 0 only when the written quote confirms inclusion or the item is not required. This worksheet does not supply a sensor price, exchange rate or tax rate.
No subtotal calculated yet. Name one configuration and enter the available amounts. You can leave every unconfirmed line blank, or try the clearly labeled accessory example.
WHAT IS INCLUDED IN THE NUMBER?
Quote the measurement chain, not only the transducer
A sensor-only figure and an integration-kit figure may cover different equipment. Identify where digitization and matrix processing occur, which cable and connector are supplied, and whether a robot adapter or software package is included. Resolve those differences before comparing quotation totals.
The existing HXF RFQ options disclose planning amounts of USD 145 for an adapter, USD 85 for a cable and USD 220 for a sealing review. In this illustrative example each is requested once per sensor, for two identical sensor configurations. These amounts require configuration confirmation and are not a seller quotation.
Illustrative accessory arithmetic, not a complete system price
For an actual quote, change the quantity and replace each illustrative value with the relevant supplier figure. A cable sold per assembly or a one-time sealing development fee may need a different allocation. Obtain that allocation rather than multiplying a mixed scope automatically.
READ THE SIX-CHANNEL CONFIGURATION BEFORE THE PRICE
Lower headline cost can hide a different engineering scope
Compact robot tooling
Illustrative review: two offers specify the same outer diameter, but one requires a taller adapter. Recheck the stack and moment arm with the load worksheet, then price the revised adapter and cable. Similar size is not a verified replacement.
Real-time acquisition
Illustrative review: one quote includes a sensor while another includes EtherCAT electronics and controller files. Identify the tested configuration and software scope using the interface review before comparing the complete acquisition cost.
Calibration acceptance
Illustrative review: the initial quote includes a matrix but the project needs additional uncertainty or combined-load evidence. Request the evidence scope and price through the calibration review. A certificate label does not establish the required measurement quality.
These are planning scenarios, not customer case studies or measured HXF results. HXF model names remain review targets. Use the model comparison to retain alternatives, then price each chosen configuration separately.

Quote identity
Supplier reference/revision, currency and validity period.
A buyer worksheet or PDF is not an issued supplier offer.
Quantity and basis
Exact identical sensor count; per-sensor versus per-order lines.
Do not multiply a shared interface or one-time fee as if it were per sensor.
Included items
Serial calibration files, adapter screws, cable, software and support scope.
Record an included item once; do not double count it.
Delivery and acceptance
Destination/named place, shipping terms, lead time and acceptance criteria.
Freight and import costs are separately confirmed buyer inputs, not calculated rates.
The delivery terms affect which costs belong to each party. ICC’s explanation of EXW and DDP illustrates why a named delivery basis matters. Ask for the agreed responsibility in writing; this tool does not interpret a contract or calculate taxes.
This page covers initial acquisition scope. Recurring licences, scheduled recalibration, maintenance, replacement and downtime require a separate project-horizon review. None is silently included in the subtotal.
Method: known per-sensor amounts × identical sensor quantity + known once-per-order amounts. Blank costs are omitted from arithmetic and listed as unknown. Decimal input is converted to integer cents. Reviewed 1 November 2026 by HexaForce Metrology & Robotics.
PRICE AND QUOTATION QUESTIONS
Before requesting your six-axis sensor price
What is the price of a 6-axis force torque sensor?
A usable price needs the exact sensor configuration, calibration, electronics, cabling and delivery scope. HexaForce does not publish an approved sensor price list here. Use your supplier figures in the worksheet and request a written configuration quote; the disclosed accessory amounts are planning examples only.
Does the worksheet estimate the sensor price for me?
No. It adds the amounts you enter using the stated per-sensor or per-order basis. Blank values stay unknown. There is no inferred sensor price, currency conversion, tariff rate, discount or savings claim.
How do I handle included calibration or electronics?
Enter 0 only if the written quote includes that line in another priced item, or confirms it is not required. Record the scope in your quote reference or acceptance requirements. Do not add a separately priced interface again when it is already included in the sensor system price.
Are the $145 adapter, $85 cable and $220 sealing amounts firm prices?
No. They are owner-requested accessory planning amounts also disclosed in the existing RFQ options. For two identical sensors their combined arithmetic is USD 900. Sensor, electronics, calibration, software, setup and delivery/import costs remain unknown in that example.
Can I use two different sensor models in one calculation?
Use one identical configuration per worksheet. Compare mixed wrist/ankle configurations separately and request the combined set quote through the four-sensor workflow. A retained candidate shortlist records alternatives, not a quantity allocation or an approval of equal prices.
Is freight or import tax automatically included?
No. Enter a whole-order figure only when you have one, and ask which party pays each charge under the written delivery terms. The worksheet does not determine duties, tax treatment, customs classification or a legal allocation of responsibility.
Does filling every cost field approve a purchase?
No. Amount coverage only describes the worksheet. Drawings, simultaneous loads, calibration evidence, interface/software versions, quote validity, lead time and acceptance terms must still be confirmed for the exact configuration.
Can I save the cost worksheet as a PDF without JavaScript?
Yes. The native calculator returns a server-rendered result. Continue to the existing buyer-brief builder to preview/print a PDF or download complete text. The worksheet, unknown costs and retained technical requirements stay with the request.
