FANUC secures Major Robot Order

FANUC, the world's leading robot manufacturer, has received a significant order to supply a state-of-the-art paint system, including paint robots and advanced application technology. Nearly 50 robots will be delivered to a European luxury carmaker.

“We are managing the entire project, including installation,” says Jan Kamenicky, Head of Paint at FANUC Europe. The FANUC robots will paint both car bodies and plastic add-on parts such as bumpers. “Our application technology ensures fast changeover times and minimal paint loss.”
FANUC impressed the customer with an innovative cabin painting concept that requires fewer cabins and robots. FANUC’s paint lab nearby Stuttgart, Germany, also played a crucial role. The robots will automatically open the bonnet and boot and apply multiple layers of paint, with technology provided by FANUC partner Sames Kremlin.

“Like our standard robots, our paint robots are extremely durable and benefit from unlimited maintenance by FANUC”, adds Kamenicky. “This makes us an attractive partner for companies aiming for sustainable operations.” Painting robots are essential for achieving high-quality surfaces. They apply paint evenly and efficiently, while protecting employees from health hazards. FANUC, headquartered in Japan, offers around 200 robot models, including a wide range of painting robots and paint system solutions.ster and easier.
