About FANUC
FANUC develops factory-automation equipment across three connected businesses: CNC and servo systems, industrial and collaborative robots, and ROBOMACHINE products for machining, electric injection moulding and wire electrical-discharge machining. Its robot catalogue spans assembly, welding, painting, material handling, palletising and machine-tending systems, with software and controls connecting robots to wider production equipment.
The company manufactures its principal product families in highly automated factories in Japan and supports them through a global sales and service network. FANUC produced its one-millionth industrial robot in 2023. Its Robot division generated ¥329.566 billion in sales during the year ended 31 March 2025, equal to 41.3% of consolidated net sales, while the headquarters robot factory has stated capacity of 6,000 units per month.
