Powder Coating Robot

Robotic powder coating is often considered for coating operations that are traditionally only done with manual labor. It is the case for coating parts with complex geometries or touch up of a parts faraday areas that fixed or reciprocating powder gun systems in a moving line system cannot reach and cover.

Robotic powder coating is often considered for coating operations that are traditionally only done with manual labor. It is the case for coating parts with complex geometries or touch up of a parts faraday areas that fixed or reciprocating powder gun systems in a moving line system cannot reach and cover.

Benefits of Robotic Powder Coating:

  • Targeted coating to improve transfer efficiency and reduce reclaim/waste
  • Coating of large and complex geometries at a higher and more efficient rate
  • Optimized and repetitive process application results in improved & uniform coating quality
  • Protects workers from hazardous work environments
  • Reduced dependency of skilled labor
  • Scalability into multiple shifts without any need for additional skilled labor
  • Flexible and easily adaptable to a new product
  • Touch up of faraday areas missed by fixed or reciprocating powder guns in a moving line system.

    Moving Line Powder Coating Robots

    The parts traditionally enter the powder booth hanging from an overhead conveyor on a moving line powder coating system. Once the parts enter the booth, the powder coating robot(s) will follow and touch up targeted areas on the part. In cases with lower line speeds, the robot(s) can coat the whole part without needing a fixed powder gun system.

     

    Powder Coating of Complex Geometries

    Robots can coat complex part geometries by adding an external axis that will extend the robot’s reach. A very elegant solution is a robot on a rotary swing arm that can be used to swing the robot from upright position to laying down on the side. Thus, allowing the robot to coat top down as well as under up, without moving the part.
