FUTEK

Precision strain-gauge sensors for robot joints and feet

FUTEK is a California-based manufacturer of strain-gauge force/torque and load sensors used in robot joints, feet, and other precision measurement applications.

FUTEK designs and manufactures a broad catalogue of strain-gauge-based sensors, including load cells, torque sensors, and multi-axis force sensors used across aerospace, medical, and robotics industries. In the context of humanoid robots, FUTEK's products are integrated into joints and foot pads to measure ground reaction forces and joint torques, enabling better balance and gait control. The company operates its own manufacturing facilities in Irvine, California, allowing tight control over sensor tolerances and custom configurations. FUTEK's measurement ecosystem also includes signal conditioners and software, providing a complete sensing solution for robotics engineers.
