Visionary finalist: ready-to-spray painting robot is Industry 4.0-ready

Dürr, a leading engineering firm focused on automation, has entered the wood industry. Joining forces with robotics firm Kuka, the companies have developed a compact ready-to-spray painting robot designed for the wood, plastics, and metal.
 
The painting robot system consists of a small six-axis robot equipped with high-end paint application technology. The system is completed and pre-commissioned by Dürr at its manufacturing plant, making it "ready2spray" upon arrival at a customer's site.
