Description
🛠️ Part Description
A02B-0236-C141#XX is an operator panel / operator interface assembly used on FANUC CNC controls, typically in i-Series systems (like 16i/18i/0iB, etc.). It’s essentially the small-keyboard operator panel that houses the built-in membrane keyboard and associated PCB for machine operation and user interaction.
📌 What It Is
-
Type: Small-type operator panel (compact human-machine interface).
-
Used On: FANUC i-A/B control systems (lathe/milling/other CNC machines).
-
Function: Provides the keyboard and interface that operators use to input data, control axes, jog, and interact with the CNC control software.
-
Features (in typical variants):
-
Built-in membrane keyboard.
-
Interface PCB integrated for control signals.
-
Compact size compared to the full-keyboard panel (A02B-0236-C140 series).
-
📌 Meaning of Suffix (#XX)
The #XX at the end isn’t part of the core model number — it specifies the exact variant, usually indicating things like:
-
#M / #MBR / #MBS — Milling-machine type or key-layout variant.
-
#TBR / #TBS — Lathe-machine type or key-layout variant.
-
Different designs may have variations in key icons (symbols vs. text) and language layout.
