Highlights of FANUC arc welding robots

Specialists for narrow spaces

FANUC arc welding robots' slim wrist design makes them ideal for use in many different industries. They are widely used in the automotive sector, especially TIER 1 for welding seats, axles and other components.

Hollow wrist and arm

ARC Mate’s hollow wrist enables it to access narrow spaces and cuts costs by minimising wear and tear on welding cables. Offline programming makes it easier to foresee interference issues that could occur during the welding process.

Plug-and-play interface software for welding power sources

Allows for seamless connection to all leading welding power sources and minimises integration and setup time. While other robot brands limit your power source options, FANUC provides high-level digital interfaces for the widest range of power source brands. With our digital interface, power source weld parameters can be monitored and adjusted directly from our Robot iPendant.

Visual arc welding

iRVision, FANUC’s unique vision system, gives arc welding robots the ability to:

identify part types
locate parts and weld positions
provide post-weld checks

TorchMate saves time

Automatically adjusts the Tool Center Point (TCP) and improves welding productivity by eliminating time-consuming path re-teaching caused by torch or wire deviations after collisions. This technology is available in both tactile and iRVision-based methods to accommodate all different application requirements.
