Robot painting system Autotest

Modernization of the robot painting plant of the company Autotest in Iggingen

As part of the modernization, the painting robots and the combined flame-cutting / CO2 robot were replaced in the existing painting system 2 in 2014.

In addition, a teach robot was installed and the paint supply system was expanded and enclosed as part of the modernization.

In the course of the modernization, the entire application and paint supply system was converted to a Siemens S7 control system.
