FANUC or

|} (Tyo - 6954) is a Japanese electromechanical manufacturer specializing in robotics. It is one of the largest maker of industrial robots in the world. It is part of the Furukawa Group. FANUC had its beginnings as part of Fujitsu developing numerical controls (NCs) and servo systems. The company name is an acronym for Fuji Automatic Numerical Control.



In 1972, the Computing Control Division became independent and FANUC Ltd was established.

FANUC is listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, Section 1, 6954. It is headquartered in Yamanashi Prefecture.

Among FANUC's biggest clients are many US and Japanese automobile and electronics manufacturers. FANUC probably more than any other Japanese company has been instrumental in developing Japan's image as a producer of precision and quality equipment. Use of industrial robots has allowed companies like Panasonic in Amagasaki to run factories which produce 2 million television sets a month (mostly high end plasma LCD screens including the world's largest at 103 inches ), with just 15 people.

FANUC has joint ventures, subsidiaries, and sales offices on 5 continents and over 22 countries.
