AUTOMATIC

SOLUTION

Scanning

The part is scanned by

3D sensors right before

painting

Image Acquisition

An image of the part is

established by use of

sensor data (or existing

CAD-data).

Feature

Extraction

Significant geometric

surface features are

recognized. These

will be painted using

appropriate painting

procedures

Planning of

Painting Motions

Motions for the

paint tool are auto-

matically generated

by INROPA™.

Special motions

are applied for

special features.

Generation of

Collision-free

Robot Motion

The paint tool

motions are con-

verted to robot

motions and simu-

lated. Collision-

free robot motions

are generated

automatically

Generation of

Executable

Robot Program

An executable

robot program is

generated for

any type of robot.

The program

is generated and

executed without

manual interaction.

Use Robots for Small Batch Sizes

Using INROPA™ makes it profitable to utilize robots

for painting of small batches. You can increase

profitability and improve the working environment

by using robots in your paint shop. Even for small

batch sizes INROPA™ facilitates the use of auto-

mated painting processes to ensure constant prod-

uct quality

INROPA™ uses Your Painting Expertise

INROPA™ gives you the possibility to integrate your

own painting expertise.

INROPA™ can adapt knowledge from human

painters in order to meet your specific quality

requirements. This is realized by letting experienced

painters specify special painting procedures.

INROPA ™

can also control

robotic pre-

painting of posi-

tions which are

not reachable

by eiectrostatic

reciprocators.

Different Degrees of Automation

INROPA™ is applicable in different

degrees of automation. The fully

automatic version uses integrated

3D sensors in front of the paint cabin.

Semi-automatic versions use either

3D sensors separated from the paint

line or available 3D CAD models of the

part to be painted. Both semi-automatic

versions can be upgraded to af fully automatic

system at a later stage.

Painting Process

INROPA ™ is applicable for wet painting and powder painting with or

without high voltage.
