This course introduces the student to robotic painting.  Lectures provide an overview of the painting robot and related hardware including fuild delivery systems and applicators.  This course emphasizes the planning and creation of an effective paint path and includes basic operation of the FANUC robot.  Also included are functional explanations of computerized paint process control.  It is not a PaintTool Operation and Programming class.

Course Code: J2P0550

This course will cover:

• Robotic Paint System Overview 
• Purpose and use of PaintTool Menus 
• Jogging the robot in various frames with the Teach Pendant 
• Setting up a Tool Frame 
• Creating a Process 
• Setup of Fluid Presets and Electrostatics
• Teaching and modifying a path program
• Testing a path
• Adjusting paths and presets
• Line Tracking operation

Recommended safety procedures are integrated into all training exercises.

In addition to presentation and demonstrations, this course offers a series of lab exercies for the student to complete.  Lab exercises relate directly to the classroom presentation and are intended to reinforce what the studnet has learned through hands-on activities.  Student progress and mastery of the course objectives are measured by a pretest and posttest.

Course Goal:  Upon successful completion of the course, the studnet will understand the purpose and functionality of computer controlled robotic painting including the basic fundamentals of paint path programming using FANUC Robotics PaintTool software.

Audience: This course is designed for paint shop process engineers, system operators, programmers and those recently introduced to robotics painting systems.

Prerequisites:  None

Recommended:  Those requiring a more detailed knowledge of FANUC Robotics PaintTool software application are urged to take our PaintTool Operation and Programming course, Course Code J2P0510.
