 ABSTRACT
Robotic spray painting has emerged as a transformative technology in the field of surface

finishing, offering unparalleled precision, efficiency, and consistency in the application of

coatings across various industries. This abstract provides a concise overview of the key

aspects and advancements in robotic spray painting. Robotic spray painting systems have

significantly evolved in recent years, driven by advancements in robotics, artificial

intelligence, and materials science. These systems are now capable of achieving precise and

uniform paint or coating application on a wide range of surfaces, including automotive

components, aerospace structures, industrial equipment, and architectural surfaces.

 INTRODCUTION

Spray painting is a painting

technique that involves the
application of paint or a coating
material in the form of tiny
droplets or particles through the
use of a spray gun or aerosol can.
It is a widely used method for
applying paint to a variety of
surfaces, and it offers several
advantages over traditional brush
or roller painting.

What is robotic spray painting ?

Robotic spray painting is the process in which spray painting is

done by robots or robotic arm to reduce the human effort and to
increase accuracy.
Widely, Robotic spray painting is used in industries such as
automobile industries, Fabrication industries, Pipe industries, etc.

 About Our Robotic Spray Painter

Generally robotic spray painter have finite distance in axis, but we

have modified this to infinite distance in axis through which it can
paint long surface and large objects.
our robotic spray painter can move from one place to another way
easily as we have provided 4-wheel drive mechanism.
our robot has zero turning radius.
Our entire robot can be controlled through a 12ch remote control
system, through which it can be accesed easily.

 why we have selected this project

As there is a large scope of spray painting in nowadays and

coming future
Robotics spray painters can be used for Indoor and Outdoor
painting
Industrial robotic spray painter are used to increase the
accuracy and efficiency
There is a major disadvantage of industrial spray painters, that
their arms can be extended upto a finite distance in a axis, which
we tried to remove in our project by making a robot to move upto
infinite distance.

PART LIST
Batch No: B11 8
 WORKING PRINCIPLE:
In robotic spray painting
process is done using robotic
arm, through which good
accuracy is obtained and it is
fully automatic process.

Batch No: B11 9

WORKING (MECHANISM)
Our robot can spray paint in 4 axis.
For x and y axis it has 4 wheel drive mechanism, which have no
limit of distance like usual industrial spray painters.
For z axis it have robotic arm, which can spray paint upto 2m of
height.
Our robot also have a rotatory table which can rotate its arms.
Our robot consisting built air compressor for spray painting.
Spray paintgun can paint horizontally,vertically and countinous
at a point.
Our robot is controlled wirelessly through 12 channel R.F.
controller.
Batch No: B11 10
APPLICATION
Interiors and Exteriors of residential,commercial,industrial and
farm buildings.
Industrial and security walls.
Refinishing Projects.
Manufacturing.’
Graffiti

Painting is particularly economical for rough and irregular

surface such as structural steel, metal decking and concrete
product.
Batch No: B11 11
 ADVANTAGES

Our robotic spray painter has infinite axis, as it can be used for
painting long surface and large object
It can be controlled through remote.
It give high accuracy.
It can be used for domestic use also.
Robotic spray painting is a speedy painting process.
It gives a good accessibility.
It paints evenly on the surface.

Batch No: B11 12

 FUTURE EXPANSION
As our robot work on the principle of robotic arm by replacing its
spray gun with electromagnet it can also be used as robotic arm
to lift object and transfer it to other place
By adding battery in robot, the requirement of AC supply can be
avoided.
By adding microprocessor robot can also be programmed to
paint specific object or area automatically.
Our robot can also be customized for electrostatic spray
painting.
