The FANUC LR-10 Robot Series is not only light and compact, but also offers a wide working range and high resistance to dust and water. The combination of low weight, speed, portability and enclosed structure makes these robots highly attractive for machine tending and logistics applications. With an excellent weight to payload ratio and long reach, the LR-10 Series is perfect for AGV mounting.
Machine tending (loading and unloading) is one of the most popular applications for an industrial robot thanks to the elimination of labour costs and higher production throughput. However, in a busy industrial plant, how is it possible to ensure the safety of employees in close proximity to such a fast and powerful installation? The use of FANUC Dual Check Safety technology at world-leading medical technology company Smith+Nephew, demonstrates the optimal solution.
Automating the full minting process from individual coins to finished palletised boxes is no mean feat. However, that was the task facing Swissmint, the Federal Mint of Switzerland. To make this complex concept a reality, Swissmint deploys high-performance FANUC robots in tasks that include pick and place, assembly of boxes and palletisation.
