Unlocking the Potential of Collaborative Robotics with FANUC
A new web tool allows customers to research ready-to-go collaborative robot solutions featuring FANUC's reliable and efficient CRX cobots.
FANUC America is simplifying manufacturing with the launch of its new web tool, enabling companies of all sizes to easily find ready-to-deploy collaborative robot (cobot) solutions that are pre-engineered, reliable, and efficient.
Featuring a variety of FANUC's CRX line of cobot systems, the Cobot and Go tool serves as an intuitive and informative starting point for users. This platform allows for easy navigation to find pre-engineered solutions categorized by application, robot model, or Authorized System Integrator.
Accelerating ROI with Pre-Engineered Solutions
Today's advanced pre-engineered solutions offer 'off the shelf' standardization, which can significantly accelerate return on investment (ROI) for customers. Jerry Perez, a manager at FANUC America, underscores this advantage, stating that these solutions, combined with the reliable CRX cobots, empower businesses to be operational swiftly, backed by FANUC's renowned reliability and customer service.
Cobots are widely regarded as the key to modern automation. They are designed to work safely alongside humans, are easy to program, and are more affordable compared to traditional industrial robots. This makes them particularly beneficial for manufacturing environments facing challenges such as high-mix, low-volume production. When implemented in standardized systems, cobots can occupy a small physical footprint, optimizing available space, or maximizing flexibility by being mountable to carts or autonomous mobile robots.
Diverse Applications of the CRX Cobot Line
The CRX line of cobots offers various standardized solutions tailored to meet multiple application needs. These include palletizing, machine tending, welding, and inspection, among many others. Manufacturers looking to adopt these solutions will find that FANUC provides a wealth of educational materials and training to assist those new to automation.
Further assistance is available through the CRX e-Learning site, which offers basic training modules focused on cobots. Additionally, the free Tech Transfer portal, developed by FANUC engineers, includes more in-depth technical tutorials for manufacturers eager to expand their knowledge of automation technologies.
Features and Capabilities of CRX Cobots
The FANUC CRX line of cobots boasts several key features, including eight years of service-free maintenance, safety, flexibility, rapid implementation, and easy programming. Available cobots come with payload capacities reaching up to 30 kg and a reach extending to 1889 mm, making them suitable for a wide range of industries and applications.
Specific models catering to unique industry standards, such as food-grade variations and those tailored for painting tasks, are also part of the CRX product line. This diverse offering ensures that FANUC can meet the varied demands of its customers across different sectors.
