Force control
Force control adjusts motion so that forces or moments applied by a tool to its environment match a target relationship.
Other learning contexts (3)
In context
Force sensors or estimation models may be used, and the purpose differs from position control. Specific implementation and stability conditions depend on the system.
Example
Moving while controlling force against a surface differs from merely maintaining the same Z value.
Key distinction
Do not automatically interpret process force control as a safety function protecting people.
