Painting Robots:

Robot painting produces top quality results. Once properly programmed, an

industrial painting robot can apply material without leaving behind drips,
inconsistencies, overspray, etc. Paint and/or coating is applied precisely and
consistently.
Industrial painting robots can provide exceptional part accessibility. Not only
are robotic arms slim and far-reaching, but robots can be installed in a number
of different locations (wall, shelf, rail) allowing for even greater flexibility.
Industrial painting robots protect workers. The painting application is a
hazardous and taxing job. Workers can be exposed to unsafe VOCs,
isocyanides and carcinogens. The painstaking work of painting object after
object can lead to repetitive movement injuries.
Robots, on the other hand, are better equipped to handle the dangers of this
particular work environment. Built with explosion-proof arms, these robots
remain safe in the midst of combustible gas.
COATING ROBOTS
The use of painting robots has been considerably generalized worldwide in the
last decade.
Its main application is in mass production lines, which their final goals are
quality and productivity.
Typically, the environment where painting tasks are performed is controlled by
the need to implement ATEX atmospheres, such as Robot paint application and
curing of Wind Turbine Towers
In addition to the limited space in the facility, operator work with high
workloads in monotonous and repetitive tasks.
These circumstances have made the industrial painting process, a process
widely robotized.
Thanks to painting robots, environmental problems are reduced, working in a
safe atmosphere, standardizing and increasing the quality of the finished
surface, reducing paint consumption and thus achieving an increase in
productivity coupled with cost reduction.

HORIZONTAL PAINT ROBOTS

The surface on which to apply the paint normally is horizontal, the surface is
fixed or mobile, and the PAINTING ROBOT is formed by a cartesian X, Y in a
horizontal plane, form by an X linear actuator and a double linear actuator Y.

VERTICAL PAINT ROBOTS

When the surface where to apply the paint is vertical, the surface can be fixed
or mobile, the painting robot is formed by a cartesian Y, Z in a vertical plane,
form by a linear actuator and a double Z linear actuator Y.

MIXED PAINT ROBOTS OR PAINTING GANTRY ROBOTS

It is important to highlight that not in all cases the process can be simplified
to vertical or horizontal surfaces. On many occasions the industry demands
solutions that can deal with non-symmetrical geometries and having no planar
morphologies.

FANUC America has a full range of painting and dispensing robots for a complete
paint automation solution. Advantages of Industrial Painting Robots include:
Improved Safety from Hazardous Painting Work Environments
Reduced Waste Material from More Consistant Paint Application
Greater Speed and Productivity
Increased System Uptime

TX250 paint robot

The TX250 paint series makes the difference, thanks to better process control
via PaintiXen Advanced Control Software, which allows the control of any paint
parameter, an increase in paint and solvent savings (+30% transfer rate), a high
quality trajectory and high flexibility, allowing the management of parts of
complex/multiple sizes, and increased throughput
