FANUC
Products: Cobot, Industrial arm. Risk band: Elevated RobotRisk index 19.0/100 (severity- and time-weighted incidents) · ranked 2 of 7 among Machinery OEM companies with incidents (130 tracked).
Analyst brief
The record contains two entries separated by six years: a 2015 fatality in which a maintenance technician was crushed by a robot at an auto-parts plant, and a 2021 CISA advisory disclosing buffer overflow and integer coercion vulnerabilities in FANUC robot controllers. The severity profile spans the full range, from a low-severity-rated cyber disclosure to a maximum-severity fatality. FANUC's index of 19.0 ranks 2 of 7 companies in Machinery OEM with incident history. The record combines one historical physical safety incident with one more recent disclosed vulnerability, indicating two separate failure modes rather than a single recurring pattern.
