Are you troubled by the pain points of manual coating? — Skilled workers are hard to recruit and labor costs rise year by year, with a daily output of only 800 pieces; differences in operation lead to uneven coating thickness (deviation ±10μm) and excessive color difference (ΔE≥1.2), with a defect rate as high as 12%; VOCs emissions are difficult to control, facing great pressure from environmental inspections. As the manufacturing industry transforms towards "intelligence and greenization", automated robotic coating lines have become the core choice to solve these problems. As a professional coating line equipment manufacturer, we focus on intelligent robotic coating systems to create targeted automated coating line upgrade solutions, specializing in new line customization, helping enterprises achieve a leap from "manual dependence" to "intelligent efficiency".

1. Intelligent Robotic Coating Systems: Precision and Efficiency, Eliminating Human Errors

The core competitiveness of automated robotic coating lines stems from the technological breakthroughs of intelligent robotic coating systems, realizing standardized and high-precision operations:
  • 6-axis linkage + 3D visual positioning: Equipped with 6-axis industrial robots (repeat positioning accuracy ±0.1mm) and 3D laser scanning technology, it can accurately identify the contours and grooves of special-shaped workpieces (such as auto bumpers and hardware brackets), automatically plan the optimal coating path, achieve 360° coverage without dead ends, and avoid manual missing coating and re-coating;
  • Closed-loop parameter control: Real-time monitor electrostatic voltage (±1kV), coating flow rate (±1ml/min), and atomization particle size (15-20μm), automatically adjust parameters through the PLC system, stabilize the coating thickness deviation within ±2μm, and ensure the color difference ΔE of products in the same batch is ≤0.8, far superior to manual coating standards;
  • Efficient continuous operation: Robots can run 24 hours a day without interruption. Combined with automatic loading and unloading systems, the daily output of a single line can be increased to more than 2000 pieces, 150% more efficient than manual coating. At the same time, it reduces coating waste by 30% (due to precise control of paint output), indirectly reducing VOCs emissions.
After upgrading to a new line, a home appliance enterprise reduced the defect rate of panel coating from 10.5% to 0.8%, saving more than 280,000 US dollars (equivalent to 2 million yuan) in annual waste loss costs.

 

2. Automated Coating Line Upgrade Solutions: New Line Customization, High Adaptability and High Return

Worried about poor adaptability of new lines and low investment cost-effectiveness? Our automated coating line upgrade solutions focus on new line customization, accurately matching enterprises' actual needs to achieve "immediate results after investment":
  • Full-process customized design: Customize full-process automated robotic coating lines according to production capacity (500-5000 pieces/day) and workpiece types (metal/plastic, large/small parts), integrating pretreatment, coating, curing, testing and packaging links. Adopt a U-shaped flow design to reduce floor space by 25%. At the same time, realize real-time monitoring of production capacity, energy consumption and quality data through the MES system, improving management efficiency by 60%;
  • In-depth adaptation to flexible production: Support rapid changeover of multiple categories. Through a preset process database (built-in 300+ industry solutions), switching from auto parts to home appliance panels takes only 10 minutes, meeting the order needs of "multi-batch and small-lot" without additional equipment structure adjustments;
  • Cost-optimized design: Reduce long-term operating costs through detailed designs such as coating recovery systems (recovery rate ≥98%) and waste heat recovery devices (reducing energy consumption by 20%). The average investment payback period of new lines is only 8-12 months. After customizing a compact new line, a hardware enterprise achieved a daily output of 3000 pieces, saving 60% of labor costs compared with the original manual line and reducing annual comprehensive costs by 410,000 US dollars (equivalent to 3 million yuan).

3. Multi-Industry Adaptation: Targeted Solutions for Pain Points in Different Scenarios

Automated robotic coating lines are not "one-size-fits-all" but customized and optimized according to industry characteristics to ensure adaptability and practicality:
  • Automotive industry: For chassis parts and interior parts, strengthen the anti-corrosion process adaptation of intelligent robotic coating systems, adopt the composite process of "electrophoresis + powder coating", achieve salt spray resistance of 1000 hours, and meet IATF16949 standards;
  • Home appliance industry: Focus on appearance consistency, optimize fine atomization and infrared leveling technology to create mirror-like coatings (gloss ≥90°), adapting to decorative needs such as refrigerator doors and washing machine panels;
  • Hardware industry: For small-size fasteners and brackets, design compact robot workstations, combined with rotating tooling to achieve 360° dead-angle-free coating. The daily output of a single line reaches 3000 pieces, 3 times higher than manual coating.
After introducing a customized new line, an auto parts enterprise increased the qualified rate of chassis bracket coatings from 88% to 99.5%, successfully passing the OEM supplier certification.

 

4. Full-Process Service Guarantee: Worry-Free New Line Implementation

When customizing automated robotic coating lines, we provide full-cycle support from planning to operation and maintenance, allowing enterprises to be "zero-worried":
  • Preliminary planning: The technical team visits the workshop to survey the space and sort out production needs, outputting 3D layout drawings and process flow charts, clarifying the customization plan and investment budget to ensure seamless connection between the new line and the existing production system;
  • Installation and commissioning: Professional engineers are stationed on-site for installation, synchronously conducting equipment linkage tests and parameter optimization to ensure compliance upon commissioning. At the same time, train the operation team (theory + practical operation) to master robot programming and daily maintenance skills;
  • After-sales operation and maintenance: Provide 1-year free maintenance and lifelong technical support, equipped with a remote operation and maintenance system that responds to equipment failures within 30 minutes, controlling downtime within 4 hours/month. It also supports later capacity expansion and technical upgrades (such as adding robot workstations and upgrading detection modules).
