Fanuc
Methods Automation Plus Big-K

The Methods Plus Big-K Automation System is an innovative robotic automation solution that is added to a medium bed Fanuc RoboDrill. It not only exchanges part carriers, but also tool holders to further enhance the functionality of the RoboDrill.

We designed the Plus Big-K to handle heavier workloads and larger parts than its predecessor. Combined with more pallet and tool configurations, the system will enable your shop to run lights-out for longer periods or automate high-mix, low-volume work.

No matter how you use the Plus Big-K, it’s going to help you get the most out of your RoboDrill.
