Case Study: Excalibur Tool boosts CNC tool grinding production by 300% with FANUC robotics and CNC technology

Excalibur Tool boosts production by 300% with FANUC

Excalibur Tool was challenged with building a high-performance 6-axis grinding machine for double-ended tools. They needed an automation solution that provided precision, efficiency, and flexibility using reliable and durable products from FANUC America Corporation.

FANUC implemented a solution using a FANUC Series 30i-B CNC integrated with a FANUC LR Mate 200iD robot. This system streamlined communications and created a repeatable process that grinds both ends of a tool in a single operation. The result was a 300% increase in production output for Excalibur Tool's client, along with the benefit of FANUC's lifetime support network for worry-free operation.
