Technical Training

FANUC Robot Teach Pendant Programming Course

*This industry led programme is funded under Skills Connect and is for people who are currently seeking employment, subject to eligibility criteria* Objectives

The course covers the tasks that an operator, technician, engineer or programmer needs to setup, record and/or troubleshoot programs on a FANUC Robot using HandlingPro Software.

This course teaches the participants the skills necessary to safely operate the robotic system, program the robot using the KAREL programming language. You will be clear how to jog the robot, setup Frames, use I/O, program Offsets, control Robot speed and consider Robot safety. Participants will create detailed teach pendant programs with the advanced programming techniques illustrated in a training manual.
