Programmable Machine Controller PMC
Supporting your PLC, FANUC's integrated PMC controls external devices like conveyors or doors asynchronically. Acting as an integrated I/O control unit along with FANUC 𝑖Pendant Screen Customise Function, this makes it possible to run small automation tasks parallel to the robot without the need for additional hardware.
EtherNet/IP & EtherCAT
Benefit from EtherNet/IP and EtherCAT for faster set-up. EtherNet/IP offers flexibility and broad integration in robotics, ideal for a wide range of applications due to its standard Ethernet base. Designed for real-time control, EtherCAT excels in high-precision tasks such as motion control, providing the low latency and deterministic communication essential for synchronised robotic operations.
PROFINET & PROFIBUS
Take advantage of PROFINET and PROFIBUS. PROFINET offers high-speed, real-time communication for robotics, ideal for complex automation and seamless IT integration. PROFIBUS, a reliable fieldbus protocol, is suited for environments where Ethernet is impractical, providing robust communication for process automation and robotics in challenging conditions.
