About FANUC ROBODRILL
FANUC describes the ROBODRILL as a high-speed, high-precision, high-efficiency compact machining center with a No. 30 spindle taper. The current α-DiB Plus lineup comes in small, medium and large sizes, each in a standard or advanced (ADV) version.
Per FANUC America, ADV models add a 0.7-second tool change, 4 kg tool handling and 400 mm Z-axis travel. ROBODRILLs are built for easy automation: FANUC CNCs can control connected FANUC robots for machine tending.
