Description
A06B-6150-C018 is a FANUC Alpha i–series module, and like the earlier “C011,” it belongs to the 6150 family of power supply modules (PSM)—not a servo amplifier.
It is manufactured by FANUC and corresponds functionally to the more commonly documented A06B-6150-H018 variant.
🔧 Description (A06B-6150-C018)
Type: Alpha i Series Power Supply Module (PSM)
Equivalent Model: AiPS-18HV (≈18 kW class)
👉 Simple meaning:
It is a main DC power supply unit for smaller CNC drive systems.
⚙️ Function
- Converts 3-phase AC (400–480V) into high-voltage DC
- Supplies DC bus power to:
- Servo amplifiers (axis drives)
- Spindle amplifiers
- Supports regenerative energy handling (returns energy during deceleration)
⚡ Typical Technical Specifications
(based on H018 equivalent)
- Input: 400–480V AC, 3-phase
- Output: ~565–679V DC
- Rated power: ~18–21 kW
- Compact module for CNC cabinets
- Works with Alpha i servo/spindle systems
🧩 System Role
In a FANUC CNC system:
- A06B-6150 (this module) → supplies DC power
- Servo amplifiers (A06B-6xxx series) → drive motors
👉 So this unit is the power source for the drive system, not the motor controller itself.
📌 About “C018”
- “C018” indicates a specific configuration/revision
- Functionally equivalent to H018 (AiPS-18HV class)
- Differences are usually minor (region, firmware, hardware revision)
🏭 Applications
- Small to medium CNC machines
- CNC lathes and machining centers
- FANUC-controlled automation systems
✔️ Simple explanation
👉 A06B-6150-C018 = ~18 kW FANUC power supply module that feeds servo and spindle drives in a CNC machine.
