CNC Control

The GE Fanuc Series 0 is the world's most popular CNC. With more than 350,000 units in service, the Series 0-C CNCs demonstrate the unsurpassed reliability of GE Fanuc CNCs. The GE Fanuc Series 0-C features include:

• A fully featured control unit that uses a 32-bit microprocessor design and high-density circuit technology to realize its high level of reliability
  
• Up to 4 axes controlled to 0.001mm, 0.0001" increments (optionally 0.0001mm, 0.00001") and traverse speeds up to 240m/min
  
• Controls GE Fanuc's high-performance line of digital drives
  
• Optional 0-10V analog servo command signal
  
• Monochrome CRT display
  
• Built-in PMC and I/O to control machine functions using familiar Ladder Diagram programming
  
• A control station and an optional machine operator panel

The GE Fanuc Series 0-C is a fully featured CNC especially suited to achieve computerized numerical control in general purpose machines. The Series 0-C is capable of controlling either digital or analog servo drives. GE Fanuc's high-performance line of fully digital servo and spindle drives provide the highest level of functionality and reliability. Compatibility with analog servo and spindle drives provides the Series 0-C with the adaptability required in retrofit applications.

Outstanding machining speed is possible on a continuous basis through distributed processing made possible by the adoption of a multi-processor system architecture. A high speed, high precision digital servo system has been realized by using exceptionally refined servo control software, custom microprocessors, digitally commanded servo amps, and high resolution position detectors with serial interfaces.
