FANUC industrial robots—without the taxonomy noise
FANUC uses distinct names for robots, CNC controls and machine products. CRX, M, R, P and SR identify robot families. ROBOCUT identifies FANUC wire EDM. Series 0i and 30i/31i/32i identify CNC controls. Keeping those product classes separate makes specifications and search results materially more useful.
CRX series
Collaborative robots intended for flexible automation, including machine tending and material handling. Application safety still depends on the complete cell and risk assessment.
M series
Industrial robots spanning compact machine-tending and handling applications through heavier payload work.
R-2000 series
Heavy-payload robots used for material handling, spot welding and demanding transfer applications.
P series
Robots configured for painting and coating environments, with application-specific protection and routing.
Robot controllers
R-30iB Plus and R-50iA controller context, separated from FANUC CNC controls.
FANUC CNC controls
0i, 30i, 31i and 32i CNC families used on machine tools and related systems.
