About Franka Research 3
Franka Research 3 is a seven-axis, torque-sensitive robot arm for manipulation, control and physical-AI research. It provides an 855 mm reach, 3 kg payload, joint torque sensing and low-level 1 kHz access through the Franka Control Interface.
Developers can use libfranka, ROS 2, MATLAB or Simulink integrations and the robot model library for custom control, sensing and data collection. The system is designed for laboratories and research development. Production deployment and operator safety require the appropriate Franka product, safeguards and application engineering.
