Finish qualityBy combining application technologies(bells or guns), control of sprayparameters and robots, ABB offersoptimized solutions to reach the overallquality needed by consumers whateverthe type of applied product - solvent,water-born or powder, single or doublecomponents. Our research laboratoriesallow us to develop new processes bytesting them.
Low operating costs andenvironmental protectionThe main advantage of using roboticsfor paint application is the reduction ofpaint product consumption bymonitoring the spraying process. Thissystem allows applying only as muchpaint as is absolutely necessary for thepart. Moreover, the ABB applicatortechnology offers high performances,
increasing paint transfer efficiency. Thistechnology has a significant impact onreducing operating costs, solventemissions and their treatment.
Production capacityincreasedThe increase of robot and applicatorperformance reduces the number ofmachines, and in turn decreases theinvestment while increasing the overallreliability of your production tool.
ABB, an expert in robotized paint application, develops robots aswell as a full range of spraying equipment in order to obtainoptimum result in terms of overall quality. Our objective is toreduce your overall production cost by helping manufacturers toreduce product consumption and the number of machines.
Multiple skills at your service
Efficient processequipmentOne of ABB’s excellence areas isthe development of sprayingequipment such as the new seriesof bells called Robobel 1000. This product is able to:• Quickly adapts its spraying size
to the surface to be painted• Spray twice as much product as
previous atomizers• Reach 70,000 rpm to improve
spraying fineness and quality
A complete robot rangeFor paint applications, all robotsworking in explosive area meetEX norm. ABB robots, associated with theircontrollers, reach high speed and
acceleration, thus ensuring auniform coating of the surface.Wrist payload capacity mayreach up to 25 kg.
Software for processoptimizationSimulation and off-lineprogramming software such asRobotStudio, or productionsoftware like ShopFloor Editor,provides a real advantage byoptimizing the application andsaving time in robot programmingand operating.
ABB commitment is to use its expertise to reduce emissions and

Statements from our customers
ProtonMalaysia
“We have shown a 35% reduction of paintused. When the paint supplier asked me whywe suddenly had reduced the amount ofproduct ordered, I explained that it wasthanks to ABB’s paint system.”
FlextronicsChina
“We strongly believe that this is thebeginning of a long-term collaboration whereABB and ComPal will form a verycompetitive team.”
CasappaItaly
“By decreasing the overspray, we alsoreduced management costs and emissions.The fact that the system is so easy to use -in terms of robot programming andmaintenance - also enabled us to simplify thestructure of our paint workshop.”
NorDanNorway
“Automation by ABB of our productionperfectly meets all our demands andrequirements. Product quality is much betterthan expected, we save a lot of paint and ourdeliveries are now under control. Above all,our forecast return on investment has beenmet.”
