FANUC M900iB /360
Robot details
The FANUC M-900iB/360 is a high-performance 6-axis industrial robot designed for heavy payload applications requiring speed, precision, and reliability. Engineered by FANUC for demanding industrial environments, this robot combines a robust mechanical structure with advanced motion control technology, making it ideal for material handling, machine tending, spot welding, assembly, and parts transfer operations.
With a maximum payload capacity of 360 kg and a horizontal reach of 2655 mm, the M-900iB/360 offers an excellent balance between strength and agility. Its compact wrist design and powerful servo motors allow the robot to move heavy components rapidly while maintaining excellent repeatability and positioning accuracy.
The robot is commonly paired with the FANUC R-30iB Plus controller, one of the most advanced robot controllers developed by FANUC. The R-30iB Plus system provides improved processing power, enhanced motion performance, smarter diagnostics, and an intuitive operator interface through the iHMI platform. It also supports advanced FANUC software options such as iRVision, DCS Safety, SpotTool, and intelligent motion optimization functions.
Designed for flexibility, the M-900iB/360 can be mounted on the floor, ceiling, wall, or at an angle, making it highly adaptable to different manufacturing layouts. Its enhanced cooling system protects the servo motors from harsh industrial environments and permits faster cycle times with high-duty operation. The wrist and arm protection rating also allows the robot to operate reliably in dusty or wet industrial conditions.
The FANUC M-900iB/360 is widely used in industries such as automotive, metal fabrication, aerospace, heavy manufacturing, and logistics automation, where heavy components must be handled with speed and precision. Thanks to its durability and low maintenance requirements, it remains one of the most popular heavy-payload robots in automated production systems worldwide
