FANUC robots enable 24/7 CNC machining at RADMOT
About RADMOT Sp. z o.o.
Established over 40 years ago, RADMOT has emerged as a major player in the CNC machining arena. The 200-employee, family-owned company offers both CNC milling and turning services, machining parts from materials that include aluminium, steel, copper, brass and engineering plastics on its extensive selection of 80+ machine tools. Located around 80 km south of Warsaw, RADMOT garners customer trust through operational pillars that include quality, transparency, flexibility, long-term co-operation, competitiveness and professional competence. Further services available on site include anodising, galvanising, laser marking, assembly and parts washing.
Intelligent FANUC features ensure safety in twin-robot cell
“We have been offering precision CNC machining services for over 40 years,” states Paweł Stańczyk, Vice President at Poland-based RADMOT. “Our machine park houses over 80 CNC lathes and mills, with 17 FANUC robots supporting the production of components in medium-to-high volume batches for a vast array of customers in many different industries. We are the perfect partner for companies seeking ultra-high quality levels and large-scale manufacturing, which means we cannot imagine operating without the repeatability and productivity provided by our automated and robotised processes.”
RADMOT’s latest automation project involved the design and integration of a CNC machining cell that combines two milling processes on different models of FANUC’s ROBODRILL CNC machining centre, including the latest 𝛼-D21L𝑖B5 for versatile milling, drilling and tapping. With addition of two new FANUC M-20𝑖D/25 6-axis industrial robots, the company can now produce milled component around the clock.
“The solution was designed and implemented by our automation department,” says Bartłomiej Nędzi, Design Engineer at RADMOT. “The cell employs two FANUC robots working without collision in a shared workspace.”
FANUC's Intelligent Interference Check (IIC) software function allows the robots to monitor their position and environment to ensure there is no potential for any collisions.

FANUC M-20𝑖D/25 6-axis industrial robots feature a very slim design and a hollow arm and wrist that allows the routing of cables and pneumatic tubes inside the robot. The M-20𝑖D/25 also has IP67 protection rating for resistance to the coolant and oil mist present in machining operations.
Particularly important for the success of this automation project was the ease of connection between machine tool, robot and peripheral devices via ROBODRILL-LINK𝑖 PC software. Furthermore, RADMOT can control the entire cell from a single operator panel thanks to the common control platform shared by FANUC’s CNC machine tools and robots.
“This is certainly not the end of our automation efforts at RADMOT,” states Stańczyk. “We are proud to say that FANUC is our trusted partner in this process.”
