ORION-R Robotic Paint Systems
Complete Automated Finishing Lines — Not Bolt-On Robots. PFS ORION-R systems are complete robotic finishing lines where robot, booth, conveyor, and controls are engineered as one integrated system. Consistent finishes, higher throughput, labor cost reduction — 18-36 month typical ROI.
Not a robot added to an existing booth.
A complete robotic finishing line engineered from the ground up for automated spray application.
The benefits of automation.
ORION-R systems deliver measurable improvements in quality, throughput, and safety.
Consistent Finish Quality
Robots repeat the same spray path, distance, and speed for every part. No operator variation, no fatigue, no training curve. Every part receives identical coating — critical for aerospace, automotive, precision finishing.
Higher Throughput
Robots don’t take breaks, slow down, or call in sick. ORION-R systems typically increase throughput 30-50% vs. manual operation.
Labor Cost Reduction
One operator supervises multiple robotic cells. Labor costs shift from skilled spray technicians to robotic cell operators. ROI typically 18-36 months.
Material Cost Savings
Programmed spray patterns optimize material usage. Transfer efficiency increases 10-20% vs. manual application, reducing coating costs.
Complex Part Geometry
Robots reach inside openings, spray undercuts, maintain consistent technique on difficult geometries that challenge manual operators.
Hazardous Coating Applications
Robots eliminate human exposure to isocyanates, solvents, hazardous materials. Critical for catalyzed coatings and high-VOC materials.
Engineered for your production volume.
From single-cell setups to high-volume multi-robot lines.
Single-Robot Production Cell
One 6-axis robot in custom booth with conveyor-mounted parts. Ideal for mid-volume (50-200 parts/day) or large parts with extended cycle times. Robot reach: 1.8m to 2.6m.
Dual-Robot High-Volume Line
Two robots in extended booth with continuous conveyor. One robot per zone for maximum throughput on smaller parts. Throughput: 200-400 parts/day.
Robot + Manual Hybrid
Robotic application for primary surfaces, manual touch-up for complex details. Combines automation efficiency with human precision.
Multi-Station Robotic Line
Multiple robotic cells with shared conveyor and cure system. Each robot programmed for different part families — flexibility with automation.
Everything engineered to work together.
Booth, conveyor, robot, and controls integrated seamlessly.
Booth Designed for Robot
ORION-R booths engineered for robotic spray patterns. Airflow designed to capture robot overspray, booth height accommodates robot reach, exhaust optimized for programmed motion.
Conveyor Coordination
Robot cycle time synchronized with conveyor. Part arrives → conveyor stops → robot sprays → conveyor indexes. Timing programmed into master control.
Safety Integration
Robot cannot operate unless booth airflow verified. Conveyor interlocks with robot cycle. Emergency stops kill robot and conveyor. Light curtains and safety scanners protect operator access.
Master Control System
One HMI controls entire system: select part program → robot, conveyor, booth coordinate automatically. Monitor cycle times, production counts, coating usage.
