Rochester Hills, Michigan – Fanuc’s new collaborative arc welding robots offer the same high level of performance that Fanuc Arc Mate robots are known for, including world-renowned technology and proven reliability. A built-in sensor allows the welding cobot to work safely alongside people without the need for expensive guarding.

Easy to use – even for those who have never used a robot, Fanuc’s arc welding cobots are equipped with ArcTool application software with an easy programming interface that supports simple and complex applications, including Fanuc’s advanced features such as Weaving, iRVision, Seam Tracking, Thru-Arm Seam Tracking (TAST), and Multi-pass.

Both of Fanuc’s new welding cobots provide six axes of motion for maximum flexibility. The CR-15iA for ARC offers a 15kg payload and a 1,441mm reach. The CR-7iA/L for ARC has a 7kg payload and 911mm reach. High payload capabilities combined with the large motion range increases system flexibility to process a broad range of parts.
