Product Description
Fanuc Robots Automate Stamping Lines
Synchronized Press Motion with Fanuc Press Sync
The core of Fanuc's success in the press shop is the Press Sync software option. This allows the robot to act as a "slave" to the press's absolute encoder. By tracking the crankshaft angle in real-time, the Fanuc R-30iB controller calculates the optimal entry and exit paths.
This eliminates the "wait-and-see" approach of traditional PLC handshakes, allowing the robot to enter the die space while the slide is still on its upward stroke. This synchronization is critical for reaching the 12-18 SPM required by modern Tier-1 automotive suppliers.
Technical Specification Matrix: Fanuc Stamping Leaders
Commonly deployed Fanuc models for metal forming:
| Robot Model | Payload | Reach | Primary Stamping Application |
|---|---|---|---|
| R-2000iC / 165F | 165kg | 2.6m | The "Workhorse" for tandem line transfer |
| M-900iB / 280 | 280kg | 2.6m | Heavy-duty handling of BIW and floor pans |
| M-20iB / 25 | 25kg | 1.8m | High-speed small part feeding and extraction |
| M-410iC / 110 | 110kg | 2.4m | 4-axis specialized stacking and palletizing |
| M-2iA / M-3iA | 3kg - 6kg | 0.8m - 1.3m | Ultra-high-speed delta robots for small electronics |
Core Fanuc Technologies for the Press Shop
Demonstrated expertise in Fanuc-specific integration:
- Visual Line Tracking: Using Fanuc iRVision, the robot can identify and pick blanks from a moving conveyor without needing physical centering stations, reducing line footprint.
- Dual Check Safety (DCS): A software-based safety system that monitors the robot's position and speed in 3D space. This allows for smaller safety fences and easier access for die changes.
- Learning Vibration Control (LVC): An AI-driven feature where the robot "learns" the vibration characteristics of a heavy part and suppresses them, allowing for higher accelerations without part slippage.
- Zero Down Time (ZDT): Fanuc's IoT platform that monitors mechanical health, oil levels, and motor torque to predict failures before they happen.
Technical FAQ: Mastering Fanuc Stamping Integration
Building trustworthiness through technical transparency:
Q1: How does Fanuc handle "Class-A" surface protection for aluminum parts?
We utilize Fanuc's Soft Float or Force Control software. This allows the robot's joints to become "compliant" during the pick-and-place operation. If there is a slight misalignment between the robot and the die, the robot "gives" slightly rather than forcing the part, preventing scratches and pressure marks on delicate aluminum or pre-painted steel.
Q2: Can Fanuc robots be integrated with "Giga-Press" or large-tonnage tandem lines?
Yes. For extremely large parts, we deploy the M-2000iA series, the world's strongest 6-axis robot (up to 2,300kg payload). These are used to transfer entire vehicle side-frames or large-format EV battery enclosures that are too heavy or unstable for standard transfer bars.
Q3: How easy is it to reprogram a Fanuc line for a new die set?
With Fanuc ROBOGUIDE (Simulation Software), we can program the entire die change and robot path offline. Once the physical die is in the press, we use Program Shift to calibrate the virtual path to the real-world coordinates, reducing on-site commissioning time from days to hours.
