Medical Equipment Manufacturing Using FANUC CNCs

FANUC CNC Systems provide reliability needed for machining medical parts that call for complex contouring, requiring complex contouring with no trace of surface defects. FANUC CNC Systems are a great fit for this type of precision machining as they can consistently execute the tight tolerances. Plus, our series of controls, 30i-B Plus, have been optimized for 5-axis machining, which is critical to producing the required geometries and high-quality finishes.

Additionally, our high performance servo motors and spindle motors provide the reliability and dependability needed to minimize your unplanned downtime.

FANUC Robots for Medical Device Manufacturing

Due to the high-level of customization involved in medical parts, they typically are produced in low-volume, high mix production runs where flexibility and quick changeovers are critical. FANUC robots are easy to operate and provide complete flexibility thanks to a range of application-specific options and straightforward integration.

Production cells built around FANUC CNC machines provide a simple way of adding flexibility and cutting costs. Benefitting from a small footprint, FANUC's LR Mate Series robots - with their lighter payload capacities - are ideally suited to tending work of this kind.

FANUC Robots for Medical Products Packaging

FANUC’s automation provides the platform needed for safe and clean environments in manufacturing and packaging medical equipment. Depalletizing, loading, line charging or thermo forming your packaging – all common tasks in the medical device manufacturing industry – can easily be automated.

DR-3iB/6 STAINLESS

Meet the DR-3iB/6 STAINLESS medical-grade delta robot, the first fully stainless steel robot by FANUC

The DR-3iB/6 STAINLESS features a fully enclosed stainless steel body that is resistant to the chemicals and high pressure/temperatures required in strict wash down environments found in the healthcare, pharmaceutical, protein, cosmetics, bakery and dairy industries. Rated IP69K, it meets USDA and FDA food safety standards, and sets a new benchmark for robotic handling in terms of payload, speed, reach and sanitation.

iRVision-3D-With-3DA

Vision Systems Ready for Medical Assembly or Packing

Equipped with iRVision and 3D Area Sensor, FANUC robots will pick, sort, place and arrange products on a moving conveyor. This makes automating during assembly easy; or when ready to ship, a FANUC industrial robot with a robotic vision system and quick-change gripper can simultaneously pack multiple products in a variety of container or box types for delivery.
