Fanuc winning this project is an important milestone as a strategic partner of the Group. The robot manufacturer is continuously investing in research and development as well as in the expansion of its service network to support its customers all over the world.
Various Fanuc robot models will be used by BMW in the future – including newly developed models that have been tailored to the customer's individual requirements. The robots will be primarily used in body shop construction and for the production of doors and bonnets. In cooperation with manufacturers of hose packages and traversing axes, Fanuc is rounding off its range of supplies to the BMW Group by providing peripheral components.
With over 110 robot models in the range, Fanuc offers a wide range of robots for industrial applications worldwide. These include particularly powerful types such as the M-2000, which can safely carry loads of up to 2.3 tons and move them flexibly via its six axes.
The company is not only successful in the automotive industry – more than 600,000 Fanuc robots have already been installed worldwide across a wide span of industries.
