What is the primary programming language used for FANUC robots?

The primary programming language used for FANUC robots is KAREL. KAREL is a specialized programming language designed specifically for robotic applications, particularly for FANUC's robotic systems. Its syntax and structure are tailored to the unique demands of robotic programming tasks, allowing users to easily manage robot operations, control motion, and implement automation processes.

KAREL not only facilitates the creation of complex programs for robot tasks but also includes robust features that support error handling, decision-making, and process control. This makes it highly effective for developing applications that require precise motion control and interaction with sensors and other devices within a manufacturing environment.

Other programming languages like Python, Java, and C++ are widely used in various fields of software development and automation but are not the primary language for FANUC robots. While they may be utilized in some contexts for interfacing or extending functionalities, KAREL remains the core language that provides deep integration with FANUC's robotic systems and their capabilities.
