G-CODES FOR PROGRAMMING FANUC CNC ROBOTS

G-CODES FOR PROGRAMMING FANUC CNC ROBOTS

FANUC introduces a new feature that allows FANUC CNCs to program robots directly using G-code. The latter feature helps to unify robot and CNC programming, while reducing operator instruction. Through the quick and simple start of FANUC robotization, FANUC CNCs can now monitor linked FANUC robots providing machine care or other assistance (QSSR). The principle…
