Complex Machining for the Automotive Industry

FANUC provides you with high-class CNCs and machines dedicated to the production of automotive components and factory tooling. Whether it’s drilling, milling, tapping, boring, complex machining, or EDM wire cutting, FANUC has a solution to improve your cycle time and increase throughput. Extremely reliable and designed for ultimate accuracy, FANUC products can also be customised to do a vast range of tasks.

FANUC CNCs allow you to achieve high production output and the highest quality standards for fast and precise 5 axis milling, turning, grinding or cutting of complex parts such as camshafts, crankshafts or gears, engine turbine blades or housings of all kinds, from consumer to aerospace electronics – or sophisticated parts such as lenses and glasses.

For parts such as wheels, finding a compromise between fast processing and a high-quality surface finish is essential. Designed specifically for high-speed cutting (HSC) and 5 axis machining, FANUC's complete line of CNC control systems, from 0𝑖-F Plus to the 30/31/32𝑖B and 𝑖B Plus Series, meet these demands. Using AI Contour Control, the control creates intricate shapes, superlative finishes and razor-sharp edges even on very small radii.

For the production of injection nozzles or gear wheels, fast ultra-precise hard turning technology using FANUC drives and controls is an economical alternative to circular grinding and achieves accuracies in the micron range.

FANUC's advanced CNC controllers (30/31𝑖-LB Plus, 0𝑖-LF Plus) lead the way in laser, plasma, and waterjet cutting applications, offering unmatched precision and efficiency. Coupled with robotisation, FANUC elevates these cutting processes, ensuring superior quality and speed in the most demanding manufacturing environments.

FANUC enhances automotive milling with the ROBODRILL center and machine robotisation for top efficiency. Our CNC control ensures easy operation and superior results across a wide range of applications.

FANUC's ROBODRILL offers unparalleled precision and efficiency for these critical applications. Its advanced capabilities make it the ideal choice for achieving top-quality results in the fastest possible times, setting the standard in the industry for speed and reliability.

FANUC's ROBODRILL excels in 5-axis machining, offering simultaneous control and advanced features like look-ahead, interpolation, and smart smoothing functions for precise, quick production of complex moulds, electrodes, and 3D parts. FANUC CNC systems enhance 5-axis machining with unparalleled precision, efficient processing, and reliable control, streamlining the production of complex parts.

FANUC's ROBOCUT provides incredible accuracy and superior surface finishes. It excels on demanding workpieces like moulds, cutting sophisticated shapes to very tight tolerances essential for high-quality automotive components.

FANUC CNCs and machines are IIoT 4.0 ready and have been for many years. FANUC offers a CNC interface that can provide machine status information on the CNC, the Servo and Spindle, the Tooling used in the process, and more, all through a straightforward interface. Machine status information can not only be made available on our current series of CNCs, but also our older model CNCs. So, you do not need the latest model FANUC control to capture this information or retrofit the machine with a current FANUC CNC.
