Automatic Detection of Paint Defects

  • Robot-based inspection process
  • Almost 100% coverage on painted surfaces
  • Determination of the robot positions
  • CAD model of painted surfaces; Offline robot simulation and program creation


Typical Standard Paint Defects and Measuring Principle

Error allocation (orange peel)

Reflective Image (Shape-image)

Defect Picture

  • With the help of the reflective image, the defect (orange peel) is clearly visible.
  • The size and severity of the defect to be detected can be set individually.


Error allocation (hair & imperfections, metallic paint)
