Synopsis

Are you stepping into the world of FANUC industrial robotics and don't know where to start?

Basics of FANUC Industrial Robotics is the hands-on, beginner-friendly guide that takes you from zero knowledge to confidently operating, programming, and simulating FANUC robots — the same robots powering factories in automotive, electronics, and manufacturing industries worldwide.

Written by an industry engineer with real-world experience across ABB, KUKA, and FANUC platforms, every chapter is grounded in actual shop-floor practice — not just theory. Whether you are an ITI student, diploma or B.Tech engineer, automation technician, or a trainer, this book gives you the structured, practical foundation you need.

What you will learn inside:
▶ Types of industrial robots and FANUC's robot lineup (LR Mate, M-10, M-710, R-2000, CRX)
▶ Robot anatomy — all 6 axes (J1–J6), joints, payload, reach, and work envelope
▶ FANUC coordinate systems — World, Joint, Tool, and User Frame explained clearly
▶ How to teach TCP (Tool Center Point) using the 3-Point method, step by step
▶ R-30iB / R-30iB Plus controller — components, functions, and architecture
▶ iPendant operation — every key, menu, and operating mode (T1 / T2 / AUTO)
▶ TP programming — J, L, C motion instructions, FINE vs CNT, speed data, P[ ] registers
▶ I/O basics — DI, DO, GI, GO, AI, AO with FANUC symbols and RAPID examples
▶ ROBOGUIDE offline simulation — setting up a virtual workcell from scratch
▶ Common FANUC alarms — SRVO-001, MOTN-023, INTP-130 and how to fix them
▶ 3 complete practical exercises with full TP programs you can run immediately
▶ 20 review questions to test and consolidate your understanding

Why this book stands out:
Most robotics textbooks are either too academic or too advanced. This book is different. Every concept is explained in plain language, every procedure is given as a clear step-by-step guide, and every code example is taken from real automation workflows. You will not just read about FANUC robots — you will understand how to work with them.

Ideal for: ITI and diploma students, B.Tech engineering students, automation and maintenance engineers, robotics lab instructors, and self-learners preparing for a career in industrial automation.

Start building your FANUC robotics skills today — with a guide written from the shop floor, for the shop floor.
