Abstract

In a sensor system for an actuator, in particular a lifting column, a force sensor is configured to detect a total force acting on an actuator part. An acceleration sensor is configured to detect an acceleration of the actuator part. Accordingly, the sensor system has a processing device, which is configured to control a drive of the actuator for moving the actuator part on a basis of the detected total force and the detected acceleration.
