Virtuose 6D TAO High Force

The Virtuose 6D TAO is a derived version of the Virtuose 6D VR haptic device, adapted specifically for the robotic and teleoperation markets. It is equipped with an extra button box, an ergonomic handle and uses the EtherCAT communication protocol.

The Virtuose 6D TAO benefits from the technological excellence and the extreme robustness of the Virtuose 6D VR, and is specially adapted to the needs of remote handling applications: bilateral control in Cartesian space, one hand and two hands usage, heavy objects handling,  3D simulation for training and mission planning.

This force-feedback manipulator was developed in collaboration with our customers, to answer to the needs of teleoperation and remote handling applications. The Virtuose 6D TAO devices have proven their robustness with unmatched field experience for haptic devices. They already count several thousand hours of operation and keep proving their reliability in the long run by being used on a daily basis for telerobotic operations and processes.

The Virtuose 6D TAO High Force provides three times the level of force feedback available on the translations. It is a version predestined for applications demanding a very high level of force feedback. This additional power is necessary for controlling robots with a payload capacity greater than 6 kg. It is well suited to controller robot like KUKA IIWA (7kg and 14kg) or Universal Robot UR10e and UR16e.

The Virtuose 6D TAO High Force is also compatible with our range of software solutions, which allow you to directly use the device in CAD software to perform assembly simulation and in 3D game engines to generate even more realistic immersive experiences.
