Cobot Painter Uses No-Code Solution

Hirebotics’ Beacon system allows anyone to program this explosion-proof painting robot

Hirebotics, a provider of collaborative robot (cobot) solutions for metal fabrication, today announced the first explosion-proof cobot solution built using its no-code Beacon platform and the FANUC CRX-10iA/L Paint hardware. Hirebotics’ Cobot Painter is available now, offering metal fabricators and manufacturers a practical, high-mix, low-volume alternative to manual spraying and complex automated lines.

In the past, ​​fabrication shops and other manufacturers ha​​d ​​to outsource coating work, as traditional automation lines were ​​too costly and complex. ​This ​resulted in a loss of ​​control over lead times, quality, and profit margins. ​Compared to ​traditional automated paint systems that require dedicated cells and major exhaust or conveyor infrastructure overhauls, the portable, lightweight Cobot Painter works inside a manufacturer’s existing manual spray environment. ​This means ​the solution can be deployed and working within days rather than months.​     ​
