The FANUC M-16i and long-arm M-16iL robots are engineered for precision, high-speed operation, user-friendly setup and maximum reliability, supported by our extensive service and parts network. The M-16i is a six-axis, modular construction, electric servo-driven robot designed for a variety of manufacturing and system pro-cesses.

M-16i, the Solution for:

  • Assembly
  • Dispensing
  • Material handling
  • Machine load/unload
  • Material removal
  • Waterjet cutting
Benefits
  • Large work envelope and load capacity allow robot operation in a wide range of high-speed, medium-payload manufacturing processes.
  • "Double-jointed" arm increases work envelope and positioning flexibility.
  • No robot modification required for upright, inverted, angle, and wall mounting.
  • Absolute serial encoders eliminate the need for calibration at power-up.
  • Unique hollow RV speed reducers simplify cable routing.
  • Small footprint facilitates placement in tight surroundings.
  • Low arm mass and rigid design allow high-speed, precise positioning.
  • Electrical and pneumatic services for tooling are internal to the arm to simplify integration.
  • Fail-safe brakes on all axes increase safety, functionality and control.
Features
  • 6 axes of motion
  • 16kg (35.2 lbs) payload capacity
  • 0.08mm (±0.003") repeatability
  • Axes speeds up to 450 degrees per second
Reliability Features
  • Sealed bearings and drives, and brushless AC motors minimize maintenance.
  • Grease fittings on all lubrication points for quick and easy maintenance.
  • Uses directly-coupled drives, which are more reliable than belts, pulleys or chains.
  • All motors, cables and tooling services are engineered to prevent snagging and damage from chips, sprays and other hazards.
  • Dust and water resistant design maximizes durability.
  • Quick disconnect robot connecting cables.
  • In-line wrist design minimizes complexity and eliminates bevel gear adjustments.
Options
  • 360 degrees Axis 1 base rotation
  • Axis 2 motor cover
  • Severe dust and liquid protection package for die cast spray, waterjet cutting and other harsh environment applications (standard M-16i wrist is rated IP67 to withstand temporary immersion in liquids).
