This center will be created to prepare students in all areas related to machine tools, production automation, digital economy. The center is the point of a meeting between new technologies and industrial needs."

With its world-beating products like the ROBOCUT, ROBODRILL and ROBOSHOT hitting factory floors through the 70s and 80s, FANUC was able to provide optimised solutions for an increasingly wide range of industrial applications and customers. The story of FANUC Russia begins in 2003, when FANUC opened the first CNC systems sales and support office in Moscow.
