FANUC ‐ the planning and development of a highly advanced robotized production system for servo motors

摘要

States that 16 years have passed since the commencement of operation of FANUC’s existing factory for assembling servo motors, the company’s staple products. The factory has attained a monthly production capacity of 25,000 units through persistent efforts to improve robotization and automation. To further improve productivity and enhance production capacity, FANUC recently constructed a new servo motor assembly factory. It employs the most up‐to‐date robots and linear motors. The new factory has a monthly production capacity of 50,000 units. This article introduces the new factory, focusing on the features of the physical distribution and production technologies it uses.
