ROBOT New product: New Innovative Mid-Size Paint Robot P-55
FANUC is launching the new P-55/15-21A paint robot, featuring the combination of outstanding ease of use and high performance. This robot is designed to handle a wide range of paint applications—from general industries to automotive—achieving both stable paint quality and lower on-site workload.
Key Innovations
- Handling Large Components
- Equipped with a long reach of over 2 meters and a payload capacity of 15 kg, large components can be painted flexibly.
- The robot supports both right-hand and left-hand configurations, allowing it to be installed on both sides of a paint line for a symmetrical layout. This improves operational efficiency and increases flexibility in layout design.
- Advanced Controller
- For the first time in a paint robot, the new R-50iA controller has been adopted.
- By redesigning explosion-proof circuits, reducing the number of components, and integrating units, all functions have been consolidated into a single cabinet, resulting in a simplified structure. This alleviates maintenance workload and expedites installation and troubleshooting, contributing to overall operational efficiency.
- Improved Usability and Maintainability
- The latest software enhances path accuracy, reducing uneven coating and improving paint quality. Also, a constant-path function independent of velocity override settings is offered to make teaching easier.
- Battery-less encoders eliminate the need to install or replace batteries, thus reducing regular maintenance burden and contributing to environmental sustainability.
The P-55/15-21A will be shown at the International Robot Exhibition in December. Don’t miss the opportunity to see FANUC’s next-generation paint robot at the venue!
Mass production start date: March 2026
