FAQ

Q: Does this unit include the take-up reel?

A: No. This order code ships without a reel take-up. Check your existing reel hardware before ordering.

Q: How do I confirm it fits my System 6 control?

A: Compare the tape interface connector and mounting points first. Then send us your control model and photos for a fitment check.

Q: Is the reader powered from the CNC backplane?

A: Yes. It is a passive component and draws power from the host system, so no extra supply rail is needed.

Q: What condition should I buy for a production line?

A: Choose a refurbished unit if uptime is critical. Tested surplus is a lower-cost option for spares or low-duty use.

Q: Can you supply other FANUC tape reader parts?

A: Often yes. Tell us the model and symptom. We source obsolete FANUC CNC parts beyond this listing.
