FANUC robotics
From the smallest to the most powerful robots – with more than 100 models, FANUC offers the world's largest range of robots for a wide variety of applications and industries. The robots are flexible to use, easy to integrate and intuitive to operate – no matter if they are industrial robots with different load capacities and ranges or collaborative lightweight robots for human-robot collaboration.
Flexibility and compatibility in the choice of end effector
Thanks to the Zimmer Group's wide range of end effectors, even the most demanding applications can be automated. Together with FANUC robots, they pave the way for automation in a wide range of industries – with maximum performance. The MATCH ecosystem guarantees maximum compatibility and flexibility in handling, thanks to the universal and FANUC-standardized communication interface. Even under demanding environmental conditions and with complex task parameters, such as high payloads, FANUC offers customized automation solutions. In combination with the Zimmer Group's broad product portfolio of handling technology and robotic accessories, a whole range of new possibilities for process automation are opening across all industries. This combines speed and maximum precision and closes the gap between collaborative and industrial robots at the same time.
In addition to an extensive portfolio of freely configurable robot accessories and grippers for FANUC, the Zimmer Group also offers compact, predefined solutions.

APPLICATION AREAS
SETUP EFFECT
Easy to install, FANUC robots can be quickly and easily combined with the Zimmer Group product portfolio. This not only makes it easier to adapt to constantly changing manufacturing requirements and processes, but also allows for easy use in future applications and projects.
The Zimmer Group's ready-to-use package, made of hardware and software components, combines FANUC robots and gripper technologies into one coherent system.
SMART COMMUNICATION MODULE FOR FANUC ROBOTS
Thanks to the Zimmer Group's coordinated communication modules, it is extremely easy to control and integrate intelligent mechatronic grippers with both FANUC cobots and industrial robots.
The Smart Communication Module (SCM) from the Zimmer Group translates the IO-Link interface into digital inputs and outputs (digital I/O) and vice versa. This ensures an efficient data exchange with the robot controller. With the right adapter plate between the specific FANUC robot flange and ISO pitch circle, you can use all IO-Link grippers from the Zimmer Group.
As a gateway for the end effector, the integrated SCM communication module communicates directly with the robot controller. This enables simple and safe control of the end effector.
Together with the ComfortApp and the Zimmer Group HMI software, the SCM ensures simple and reliable control. The guideZ software wizard integrated into the HMI gives users the ability to create and manage workpiece recipes in just a few steps and without any previous experience. In addition, the expertZ software module can be used to make detailed fine adjustments.
The ComfortApp is a tool available directly on the teach pendant for controlling the grippers according to predefined jobs. The interaction between FANUC robots and Zimmer Group grippers makes processes run very precisely and efficiently – both in the world of collaborative robots and for industrial robots.
