Hello Pros,

Robotiq just launched a new Skill on skills.robotiq.com. 

The Click Detection Skill uses the data measured by the FT 300 Force Torque Sensor to detect sudden force drops in a specific direction, in contexts such as the push of a button or the linking of different types of mating connectors.

The Click Detection node will execute a linear motion according to the selected direction and speed, and will consequently result in a successful or a failed detection.

• A sudden drop of force greater than the selected Detection threshold results in a successful detection. 
• If the force applied reaches the Maximum force value set by the user, or if the linear motion reaches the Maximum distance set by the user, the detection will have failed.

@nmp_SandN,

You could try eccentric rotation.
or for example if you were to tighten a screw with an allen key, force could be measured along the X axis.
