What you will learn

Explain the parts of a FANUC robot system, start, jog and recover it, define user and tool frames, write teach-pendant programs with joint, linear and circular motion, use registers, labels, calls, IF, SELECT, WAIT and loops, apply offsets, build a pick-and-place, use ROBOGUIDE with DCS and palletising, handle alarms, back up and restore, and integrate with a PLC over Ethernet I/O.

  • Start, jog and fault-reset a FANUC robot in T1, T2 and AUTO
  • Teach tool and user frames and know what a wrong TCP does
  • Write TP programs with J, L and C motion, FINE and CNT, approach and depart
  • Use registers, position registers, labels, calls, IF, SELECT, WAIT and FOR
  • Apply offsets and shift a whole pattern with one register
  • Build a pick-and-place with gripper confirmation and a fault path
  • Simulate in ROBOGUIDE with DCS zones and palletise with Pallet Pro
  • Recover from alarms, back up and restore, and drive the robot from a PLC over UOP

Stuck? Ask a practising engineer

A free course usually means a comment section and hope. This one does not. Every module has an Ask-your-trainer panel that reaches the same engineers who teach our paid programme: people who commission panels for a living, not moderators.

  • Questions answered in the context of the module you are on
  • The same engineers who teach the AEP programme
  • Career tools, CV help and public job listings included
  • Your progress and notes stay in your account for good

Common questions

Do I need a robot?

No. ROBOGUIDE's trial runs every exercise with a virtual pendant. If your workplace has a FANUC cell, the pendant modules apply directly.

Is ROBOGUIDE free?

FANUC offers a 30-day trial. Plan the simulation modules inside that window, or ask your employer or college for a licence.

Which FANUC controllers does this cover?

The R-30iA and R-30iB family with the iPendant, which is nearly every FANUC robot installed in the last fifteen years. The TP language is the same across them.

Is this a FANUC certification?

No. FANUC certifies through its own training centres. This course prepares you for that training and for working in a cell today.

Is the course really free?

Yes. Every module, practice task and assessment. You create an account so your progress is saved and the assessments can be marked. The certificate is the only paid item, and only if you want it.

What certificate do I get, and is it a FANUC qualification?

An EDWartens Certificate of Completion, issued when you pass the final assessment, with a verification code anyone can check. It is not a FANUC credential and is never described as one.
