Abstract

This paper proposes a method for estimating the force/torque sensor bias, and the parameters of the load(including the gravity component and the center of mass). We set the 6-axis force/torque sensor between robot and the end-effector, so that we can estimate the sensor bias and the parameters by reading data of sensor in 8 sets of robot orientations. These estimates can be subtracted from the sensor readings, in order to improve the accuracy of the force/torque measurements. In addition, this paper verifies that the installation angle bias of robot will increase measurement deviation. The experiments show that the error of resulting force compensation is not more than 3.1% of the gravity of the load, and the error of resulting torque compensation is not more than 6.1% of the gravitational torque. Moreover, considering the installation angle bias of robot, the measurements of sensor will be more accurate.
