■ Explosion-proofing

This system features functions for pressure, withstanding pressure, and essential safety explosion-proofing for preventing explosion from electric causes created by parts that drive the robot during painting. The robot’s body is designed to have a pressure explosion-proof structure to prevent explosive gas from penetrating into the body. Also, perform air purging operation when starting the controller.

■ Air purging

To prevent the flow of flammable materials into the robot's body, the robot is injected with a higher air pressure than atmospheric pressure to release explosive gases and prevent explosions. This function is automatically activated as soon as the controller main power is applied.

■ PAINT Command

   This is the robot command that switches on/off the paint supply output signal

■ Atom(Atomize)/Spray ON/OFF

This is the output signal for the paint supply. It switches on/off the paint ejection pressure valve (atom) and the spray vale, and adjusts the output timing according to the painting sequence.

■ GUN key/LED

This is the condition key for executing the PAINT command. The PAINT command of the work program will be executed, and the “Atom/Spray” output signal will only be activated when the LED is turned on.

■ Painting section

          This means the section in which the robot moves between the ON and OFF state of the PAINT command.
