ROCHESTER HILLS, MI – (Sept. 12, 2016) FANUC America Corporation will demonstrate sanding, washing and drying an aircraft fuselage with the new P-350iA/45 painting and coating robot at IMTS 2016, booth #S-8919. 

The new P-350iA/45 robot equipped with a sanding tool will simulate sanding an aircraft fuselage.  At the start of the cycle, the robot will automatically change the sandpaper pad. Upon completion of sanding, the robot connects to a washing applicator and simulates a wash routine. It will then make a second pass to dry the fuselage with compressed air.  A projected image will show the application. The cell will highlight the robot’s flexibility, payload, reach and precision.  

Intelligent P-350iA/45 Paint Robot

The new FANUC P-350iA/45 intelligent robot is the latest in a series of painting robots offered by FANUC since 1982.  Designed for a variety of applications including painting, coating, sanding, and washing, it offers a flexible six-axis design and is Class 1, Division 1 approved for operation in hazardous environments.  A 45 kg payload makes it the strongest paint robot in its classification.  Based on FANUC’s M-710iC robot series, the P-350iA/45 offers the same reliability and proven technology of all FANUC products.
