FANUC M900iB /360E
Robot details
The FANUC M-900iB/360E is a powerful 6-axis industrial robot specifically engineered for heavy-duty material handling, assembly, machine tending, and large part transfer applications. Designed for industries that require maximum load capacity and high operational reliability, this model combines exceptional payload performance with advanced motion control and installation flexibility.
With a maximum payload of 360 kg and a reach of 2655 mm, the M-900iB/360E is ideal for handling oversized or heavy industrial components such as EV batteries, metal fabrications, castings, chassis parts, and large assemblies. Its enhanced wrist structure provides greater rigidity and improved force control for demanding production environments.
The robot is integrated with the advanced FANUC R-30iB Plus controller, a next-generation robotic control platform offering improved CPU performance, smarter diagnostics, expanded memory capacity, and an enhanced user interface with iHMI technology. The controller allows seamless integration with FANUC intelligent software solutions including iRVision, Dual Check Safety (DCS), intelligent motion control, and process optimization packages.
One of the major strengths of the M-900iB/360E is its installation versatility. The robot can be mounted on the floor, ceiling, wall, or at an angle depending on the available production space. Its compact footprint helps manufacturers optimize factory layouts without sacrificing work envelope or payload capability.
The robot also features improved environmental protection. The J3 arm and wrist are supplied with IP67 protection as standard, while optional Severe Dust and Liquid Protection (SDLP) kits are available for harsh industrial conditions involving dust, water, or contaminants.
Thanks to its high rigidity, strong servo-driven axes, and advanced cooling system, the FANUC M-900iB/360E delivers excellent cycle times, long-term durability, and reduced maintenance costs. It is widely adopted in automotive manufacturing, heavy industry, logistics automation, metal processing, and energy sector applications.
