Fully automated, robot-based painting of diesel truck engines using ATENSOR LS1 technology*
Up to now, the great variety of diesel engines for trucks and other commercial vehicles has prevented automated painting by robots, due to the very high manual programming effort required. The automationCONTROL DPS 8005.T system uses optical sensors to measure the engines in a scanning cabin, and then generates custom robot programmes that can be adapted to all types with their different attachments. The programmes are loaded into the robot's memory and then executed automatically.
