SensoJoints are the world's first and only torque-controlled robot drives with safety certifications
After thousands of hours of development and countless elaborate test series and a "mountain" of documentation, the time has finally come: on 31/03/2025, the SensoJoint complete drives from Sensodrive received their safety certifications from TÜV Süddeutschland, the Technical Inspection Association.
The ready-to-install drive modules are therefore the world's first and only torque-controlled robot drives with safety certifications and can be used universally in almost any robotics solution.
Fully certified in accordance with all relevant safety standards in industrial and medical robotics.
Thanks to their comprehensive safety functions, SensoJoint complete drives meet all the requirements of safety integrity level SIL3/PLe. They are now fully safety-certified in accordance with IEC 61508, IEC 62061, ISO 13849 and IEC 61800-5-2, and enable you to
make significant savings in terms of time and cost compared to developing your own solutions when it comes to implementing ISO 10218, ISO/TS 15066, EN ISO 12100 and EN 60204-1.
Unique competitive advantages for manufacturers of cobots and medical robots.
Until now, manufacturers of cobots and medical robots have had to develop and certify their drives themselves - incurring immense costs and taking years' worth of time. Those who integrate the universal SensoJoint drives into their robotics solutions instead save themselves all this effort and secure unique competitive advantages too:
• Develop cobots and medical robots in under 5 months.
• Implement ISO 10218 and ISO/TS 15066 up to 4 times faster
• Halve time to market.
• Save on 7-figure development and certification costs.
• Integrate market-leading technology into your own products
A quantum leap for robot development
The certified SensoJoints are revolutionising the development of sensitive robotic solutions in several ways. In addition to significantly reducing the time and costs involved in development, they offer robotics manufacturers a number of other advantages that are unique in this combination.
• Maximum sensitivity thanks to market-leading torque control
• Universally applicable plug-and-play solution
• Unique control engineering with active vibration damping
• Customising service for individual adaptations.
SensoJoints are "Product of the Year" and winners of the Innovationspreis Bayern, the Bavarian Innovation Award.
With certified SensoJoint complete drives, any company can now develop cobots and medical robots with state-of-the-art technology in the shortest possible time, minimising both the costs incurred and the effort required for development/certification. These advantages have both experts and the market convinced. SensoJoints received the 2024 Bavarian Innovation Award and and were awarded second place in the "Product of the Year 2025" readers' poll organized by the trade journal ELEKTRONIK.
