Auto-kit International offers a high performance robotic painting solution for niche to high volume requirements
Painting is one of the most expensive operations in automotive industry. The painting process typically involves 30–50% of an automotive assembly plant’s costs. This high cost is attributed to the need to have high quality coatings and the necessity of meeting strict environmental regulations. The coated surface must be finished in a way that provides an excellent surface quality.
Car manufacturers today use a wide variety of metals and plastics. Every material requires a specific treatment. Thorough knowledge of these different substrates is a must.
Metallic substrates : Most body panels consist of metallic substrates ranging from uncoated steels, galvanised or coated steels through to stainless steels. In the case of coated or untreated steels, corrosion is the biggest problem you will encounter.
Plastics : Modern vehicles would hardly be conceivable without the use of plastics, the most important prerequisite for plastic refinishing is proper identification of the material.
