Fagor Automation USA will display its new product line at Eastec 2021, booth 2123. Fagor’s new product line includes the 8065 CNC Control system, which utilizes the new Q7 platform. The Q7 platform reportedly offers more powerful and compact hardware, as well as a new portable user interface called HMIelite. With it’s enhanced library of tools, Fagor claims the CNC 8065 is one of the most powerful and customizable five-axis CNC systems on the market. Also new at Eastec is the CNC 8058 for small- to medium-sized milling machines.
Fagor will also display its Series 3 linear encoders which use AI optical technology, 3Statech. Series 3 reportedly improves thermal and vibration resistance and includes a smaller reader head for a better fit. Fagor’s high-accuracy linear encoders are said to offer 3 μm accuracy, 10 Nm resolution and protocols for Feedat, Yaskawa, Panasonic, SSI, FANUC, BiSS, Siemens and Mitsubishi.
