Fanuc M20iB robot is designed for cleanroom applications

The Fanuc M20iB/25C robot has been designed to ISO Class 5 standards, bringing automated picking, packing and handling to applications for which cleanliness and hygiene are paramount.

Several special features of the M20iB/25C meet cleanroom requirements. For instance, cables and motors are enclosed in the body of the robot, making it suitable for full wash-downs with cleaning agents. The robot’s white colour also reveals dirt or debris clearly, and uses an epoxy paint that meets FDA standard 21CFR 175.300. Additional features include axes that use food grade grease, such as NSF H1, and bolted user taps to prevent the accumulation of water in tap holes.

The robot’s slim arm design, which prevents it from interfering with peripheral devices, has a maximum payload capacity of 25 kg and a reach of 1,853 mm.
