K4306-120IC/10LA - Lincoln AutoDrive S Robotic Feeder Kit for Fanuc 120iC/10LA

Precision Robotic Integration for Fanuc Systems

The Lincoln Electric AutoDrive S Wire Feeder Air-Blast One-Pak (SKU: K4306-120IC/10LA) represents the pinnacle of robotic welding integration, specifically engineered for the Fanuc Arc Mate 120iC/10LA robotic arm. In the high-stakes world of industrial automation, component compatibility and feed precision are non-negotiable. This One-Pak solution addresses the complex needs of systems integrators and plant engineers by bundling the high-performance AutoDrive S servo-driven feeder with the exact mounting hardware and cabling required for this specific Fanuc model.

The core of this package is the AutoDrive S feeder, a compact, lightweight unit designed to mount directly on the robot arm (axis 3) without compromising the robot's dynamics or payload capacity. Unlike traditional DC motor feeders, the AutoDrive S utilizes a powerful servo motor that communicates directly with the Lincoln Power Wave power source via ArcLink digital protocol. This ensures instantaneous response times, precise start/stop control, and superior synchronization with the robot's motion, resulting in defect-free welds even during complex weaving or rapid repositioning.

A standout feature of this configuration is the integrated Air-Blast capability. In continuous production environments, the accumulation of shavings, dust, and spatter within the liner or nozzle can lead to arc instability or burn-backs. The Air-Blast feature allows for programmed bursts of air to purge the wire path, significantly extending consumable life and reducing unscheduled downtime. By choosing the One-Pak, procurement is streamlined; there is no need to source individual brackets, insulators, or specific cable lengths—everything required for a mechanical and electrical handshake between the Lincoln feeder and the Fanuc robot is included in the box.

Key Technical Benefits:

• Servo Precision: Delivers consistent torque and speed regulation, essential for aluminum and thin-gauge steel applications.
• Reduced Footprint: The nested mounting design keeps the feeder close to the arm, minimizing cable whip and maximizing the robot's work envelope.
• Digital Ecosystem: Full integration with Power Wave systems allows for advanced process monitoring and CheckPoint cloud data collection.
