Robotics & Automation for the Automotive Industry

FANUC offers a wide variety of automotive manufacturing solutions for standardised processes commonly found in the automotive industry. These range from dedicated robots equipped with advanced vision and motion control systems to dedicated solutions for assembling, welding, handling, machining, inspecting or painting. Often these solutions are ideally suited to performing repetitive tasks that demand high levels of throughput and which might pose a health risk to humans. In every case, FANUC has a solution to improve your cycle time and increase throughput.

FANUC provides customized products and interfaces to automate resistance, MIG/MAG, MIG pulse, TIG and plasma welding. Delivering improved quality and cycle times and consistent spots and welds is a particularly attractive option businesses that want to automate to reduce costs.

Fully integrated process cables ensure the protection of process cables and prevent interference with system equipment. FANUC Learning Vibration Control enables your robot to auto-learn a smooth high-speed motion that speeds up spot welding and drilling applications by up to 15%. 

Need to move some automotive parts? From the smallest part to an entire automotive body, FANUC offers an extensive lineup of part transfer robots capable to handle up to 2300 kg. These robots are iRVision and force sensor-ready, and capable of high-speed transfer in a well-optimised system.

FANUC offers a variety of highly reliable assembly robots that are dexterous, repeatable, compact and fast. From 5 to 6-axis articulated robots, 3 to 6-axis Delta robots, to our SCARA robots and Collaborative robots, we have the assembly robots and the intelligent features needed to keep your production goals on track.

FANUC paint robots are suitable for a wide variety of automotive painting and coating applications, offering easy access, optimal work envelopes and maximised throughput. With some models designed to operate in hazardous environments and a wide range of reaches and handling capacities on offer, whatever your painting or dispensing requirements you can be sure there is a model to meet your needs.

Apply your adhesives with more precision, accuracy and efficiency with dispensing robots from FANUC. Using dispensing robots for sealer applications provide a variety of advantages including improved consistency, higher speeds and productivity, and increased system uptime.

FANUC vision systems offer a competitive edge by providing quality assurance through precise defect detection, facilitating seamless automation through reliable part identification both on a conveyor or a bin, and optimising production efficiency by enabling adaptive processes based on real-time visual data.
