FANUC America Launches Cobot E-Learning Website

FANUC America (Rochester Hills, MI) a supplier of CNCs, robotics, and ROBOMACHINEs, today has launched a new e-learning website to educate manufacturers and industry about its CRX collaborative robot. The site provides online training tutorials, a deep dive into a wide range of peripheral devices and tooling partners, and the latest product information about its CRX cobot lineup.

New CRX e-Learning training modules help customers get their employees quickly up to speed. There are currently three online tutorial modules covering a product overview with features, unboxing and setup, and a programming course. Additional learning modules will be offered in the next few months. Users can register on the site to start the free online CRX training modules.

FANUC’s new CRX collaborative robots are easy to use and program, safe, flexible, and quick to get up and running for a variety of manufacturing and industrial applications. The CRX is available in two models, both with 10kg payloads: the CRX-10iA and CRX-10iA/L long-reach version. https://www.fabricatingandmetalworking.com/2020/01/new-robot-raises-the-bar-in-collaborative-technology/

Easy Integration of Peripheral Devices

The growing list of partners include:  ATI, Leoni, OnRobot, Schmalz, Schunk, SMC, Soft Robotics, and Swivellink.
