FANUC NC controllers
Control / device naming conventions
Each generation of FANUK numerical control system has different levels of device control capabilities, and these are generally referred to by a model or series number.
Each controller model is typically available with several device control capabilities, depending on what software functions are licensed for use on that device. Some common control capabilities are:
M - Milling
T - Turning (lathe)
TT - Twin Turret
P - Punch press
G - Grinding
Within each model name, there can also be generational updates for each model, usually indicated by a trailing letter.
Model 0 is somewhat unusual in that both the number zero and the letter O are used interchangeably to indicate the model.
There is no specific syntax for distinguishing the model from the device type and series, with spaces or dashes or slashes, which can result in difficulty searching for information, fanuc parts, and service for this equipment. For example, in the FANUC-0 series, these are all valid identifications for various types of NC controls and machines
NC controller capabilities
When separate computer-aided manufacturing software is used to control these different systems, the model differences can be used to tell the manufacturing software how to more efficiently use the system programming capabilities. Some
FANUC develops high-quality products featuring "intelligence", "ultra-precision" and "high functionality while adhering to its basic policy of "high reliability" in product development.
One-third of FANUC Japan employees in research and development of FANUC’s leading-edge products.
All FANUC products are developed and produced in Japan. This is possible thanks to the full robotizzation and automation of the production lines.
FANUC incorporates broad robotization into all manufacturing activities, with more than 1,000 robots now operating at FANUC factories. FANUC is also rapidly installing intelligent robots to enhance the efficiency of its machining and assembly processes, promoting the increased technical and financial benefits of advanced automation at its own factories. By making the most of its vast experience in using its latest advanced products at its own production facilities, FANUC has demonstrated that automation and robotization bring high efficiency and cost reductions to manufacturing and production processes.
FANUC’s Business is structured around 3 branches:
CNC & Laser
Industrial robots
Robomachine: Robodrill, Roboshot and Robocut
Fanuc Group is worldwide established. As main overseas companies, the group has 14 companies in Asia, 4 in Americas, 21 in Europe (including Russia) and 1 in South Africa.
