FANUC

FANUC Corporation is a Japanese multinational headquartered in Oshino, Yamanashi at the base of Mount Fuji, and is one of the world's largest suppliers of factory automation, industrial robots, and CNC (computer numerical control) systems. Founded in 1972 after spinning out of Fujitsu's numerical control division (originated 1955) under Seiuemon Inaba, FANUC pioneered commercial NC and CNC technology and by the early 1980s held roughly half of the global CNC market. The company operates three primary business segments: FA (CNC systems, servo motors, lasers, and PMC controls for machine tools), Robot (industrial arms from the LR Mate and M-series through the heavy-payload M-2000iA, plus the CRX collaborative robot family), and ROBOMACHINE (ROBODRILL machining centers, ROBOCUT wire EDM, and ROBOSHOT all-electric injection molding machines). FANUC's primary developer surface is FOCAS (FANUC Open CNC API Specification), a licensed C/C++ library (fwlib32.dll) used by machine builders and MES/OEE vendors to read CNC state over Ethernet, plus KAREL and Teach Pendant (TP) programming on the robot controllers and a published ROS 2 driver for the CRX collaborative arms. FANUC does not operate a public REST developer portal or publish OpenAPI specifications; integrations are partner-driven through MTConnect adapters, OPC UA servers, FIELD system edge apps, and the FANUC America customer/training portals.

FANUC is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Industrial Robotics, CNC, Factory Automation, Collaborative Robots, and Machine Tools.

The FANUC catalog on APIs.io includes 1 JSON-LD context.

FANUC’s developer surface includes academy / training, GitHub presence, YouTube channel, and 24 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Horizontal (data, software, accessibility, platform) regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.

The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/fanuc-robotics: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.

Markets this provider is in provisional

The Kin Score Market layer reads a provider inside its market: its position, and how deep its integrations go. Depth is only comparable within a position. Provisional and unweighted: not part of the Kin Score or agent readiness.

Market	Position	Depth	Registered MCP server	Declares compatibility
Industrial Automation and Robotics	undeclared	-	-	-

Registered MCP server and declares compatibility are report only — not weighted. Undeclared means we found nothing we can read, so there is no number: we never infer integrations.

Standards implemented 1

Standards this provider implements or carries. De facto ones are profiled and measured by the API Commons; formal ones come from the standards directory and are linked by the provider's own tags. The evidence column says how each claim was established — not that it was made.

tagged — the provider's own APIs.json carries the standard as a tag; implementation not verified
