Digital transformation has been accomplished.
Once again, the automotive sector has acted as a driving force: long since dominated by robotics in all production phases, it is now turning digital solutions into maintenance assistants, artificial inspectors of coating anomalies, and simulators used to define specific process parameters for each product to be processed.
On May 17, during the last Open House of Dürr AG, the world market leader in the production of car coating systems, we have seen the future – above all, the first Automated Guided Vehicles (AVG) for the transport of bodies and materials from one station to another and an even more surprising innovation: custom coating application on bodies with no overspray and no need for masks.
In the May issue of ipcmIbérica and ipcmLatinoAmérica we tell the innovation stories of several prominent companies from various countries, united by the passion, professionalism, and know-how of those who have contributed to achieving such innovations.
