Robots

Robotics Within Reach has 17 years of experience learning everything there is to know about FANUC robots.  On top of offering customized solutions in the field, we have designed course curriculum for several local colleges and have taught FANUC training courses both on campus and at customer facilities.  Our expansive background allows us the ability to offer turnkey solutions that only experts can.

​

When it comes to purchasing robots, we work with our customers to understand their unique needs and assist with selecting the most appropriate model based on their payload and cycle time requirements.  This process is enhanced by using virtual simulation and AVI's.

​

Using FANUC's Roboguide software, we complete customized reach studies to help our customers determine robot cycle times and placement of workcell items to improve product workflow.

Whether you just purchased your first robot or are looking to enhance your current set up,  let us assist with programming and integration into your existing systems.  

​

We have the ability to create custom HMI screens directly on the teach pendant as opposed to having a separate PLC and HMI screen.  Screens can be created to alert operators of issues, obtain operator input which can direct the decisions of the robot or display workcell statistics such as uptime, OEE, and fault history.

​

If you are looking for a completely customized HMI screen or confidential programming that you would like to keep proprietary, we can utilize FANUC's Karel programming language to meet your needs.
