Fanuc offers retrofit for older operating systems

Fanuc America Corp. introduces an upgrade solution for legacy CNC machines running on operating systems older than Windows 10. The Panel i Replacement Program retrofits Fanuc CNCs with an industrial PC available with touch or non-touch LCD display, solid-state drives and Windows 10 IoT Enterprise. Retrofitting industrial PCs on these machines allows businesses to safely and securely connect their CNCs to their network and take advantage of Industrial Internet of Things data (IIoT). “We realize there is a lot of legacy CNC equipment still in use today,” says Jon Heddleson, general manager of factory automation. “To fill this critical cybersecurity need, this program allows Fanuc CNC users to unlock IIoT advantages by connecting their machines to the business network in a safe and secure way.”
