Snowbird Technologies authorised as FANUC America CNC System Integrator
June 7, 2023
Snowbird Technologies, Jacksonville, Florida, USA, has announced that it is now an authorised CNC System Integrator for FANUC America Corporation, Rochester Hills, Michigan.
The Authorised CNC System Integrator (ACSI) programme through FANUC America Corporation is designed to ensure that FANUC integrators have the tools and training necessary to maximise customer satisfaction and engagement. As an authorised integrator, Snowbird Technologies has access to exclusive online and classroom training courses, marketing resources, and co-branding opportunities with the world’s leading supplier of automation for manufacturing robotics, CNCs, and motion control centers.
Snowbird Technologies’ relationship with FANUC America was established with the development of the Snowbird Additive Mobile Manufacturing (SAMM Tech) platform. SAMM Tech is a patented, large-part Additive Manufacturing machine with CNC that is built inside Connex shipping containers. This product offering is designed to produce metal and composite parts on demand for remote operations in the military and defense, oil & gas, mining, and other industrial markets.
When developing SAMM Tech and the capabilities demanded by the operator, FANUC America’s CNC products reportedly exceeded expectations and delivered the results required for this application, which led to the FANUC CNC system becoming a standard component of SAMM Tech units.
“Our authorisation as a FANUC America CNC System Integrator is pivotal as we make entrance into the hybrid manufacturing market,” stated Caroline Brown, Marketing Director, Snowbird. “Being connected with a renowned brand such as FANUC will build trust with our target markets and help us to effectively launch and distribute the impressive SAMM Tech platform to users around the world.”
