It is perfectly suited to the requirements of general industry. Areas of application include the painting of wood, plastics, glass and metal. "It‘s perfectly matched and tried-and-tested components are a unique selling point. They have been merged and integrated into an automated painting solution, which is currently a first in the market“, says Stefan Lampa, Chairman of the Board of Management at KUKA Robotics. 
Dürr and KUKA signed a cooperation agreement and presented the jointly developed robot system „ready2_spray“.

ready2_spray: prepared for the tasks of Industry 4.0

This technology is available in different configurations. The system, with all its different components, is completed and pre-commissioned at Dürr. It is thus ready for use ("ready2_spray"), can be quickly installed at the customer's site. Furthermore, the new painting system is fully Industry 4.0-ready.

The cooperation agreement covers aspects such as development, mass production, marketing strategy as well as delivery and after-sales processes. The sales concept allows both KUKA and Dürr to offer the robot on the market.
