FANUC is an industry-leading provider of industrial vision inspection systems, robotic inspection equipment and automated quality control solutions. With decades of automation experience, FANUC helps manufacturers automate product quality inspection, measurement, testing and defect detection.
Every FANUC robot comes iRVision Ready. FANUC iRVision is a fully integrated visual detection system that enables robots to locate parts, guide motion and support automated inspection. Setup is guided step by step, with a powerful vision toolbox included in the standard iRVision package to support custom vision inspection systems.
Because iRVision is integrated with FANUC robot controllers, vision inspection can be configured directly on the controller, Teach Pendant or an IE-capable device without requiring separate PCs, monitors or side cabinets.
With more than 30 years of robotic vision experience, FANUC helps manufacturers develop integrated vision inspection systems for product quality inspection, measurement, testing and defect detection.
FANUC iRVision is designed to simplify robotic inspection. The system is fully integrated with FANUC robots and controllers, making it easier to set up, configure and use without complicated programming or expert vision-system knowledge. FANUC automated inspection solutions are flexible, scalable and built to support a wide range of industrial quality control applications.
FANUC offers a wide range of robots and cobots that can support vision inspection, measurement, testing and quality control applications. Depending on the part size, payload, reach, mounting requirements and inspection process, FANUC robots can position cameras, scanners or sensors, move parts for inspection, or automate sorting and handling based on inspection results.
FANUC collaborative robots deliver safe, high‑precision automation with flexible payloads and easy integration for any production environment.
