Minimising downtime Automatic threading in just 10 seconds Built-in efficiency FANUC’s unique AWF3 Automatic Wire Feed threading technology provides fast, reliable automatic threading in just 10 seconds. To ensure reliable threading and re-threading, wires are cut electrically leaving a pointed end that is absolutely straight and burr-free, even on soft wire. Aided by a jet of water, threading the wire is both simple and very fast. • upremely reliable submerged threading and re-threading even on thick workpieces up to 400 mm s • ccurate taper-cut threading up to a height of 50 mm and taper...

Minimising downtime CORE STITCH function for continuous unmanned operation Remote monitoring with ROBOCUT-LINKi The core braze function prevents cores from dropping out and damaging the machine. Easy to setup and operate on the CNC screen, it allows you to improve your planning and extend unmanned machining hours. Stitch points are set on the machine’s CNC without the need for pre-programming. Used in combination with the re-threading in the wire path function, CORE STITCH is the ideal solution for long lasting unmanned machining and multi-workpiece cutting processes. When the job is done...
