A. After completion of teaching or coating test, the paint consumption is displayed on PC screen. Management of coating production is possible by our original developed teaching software
Q. Please teach about output method of the coating data.
A. It is very easy not only to make output of tacking data by USB but also to read it. Reproducibility of the coating is very high. Sharing the coating data among different factories will be also possible by some easy adjustment if they use SOFTBOY PRO series robots. Quality stabilization among the factories located all over the world can become possible.
