Lesta has recently introduced the Lesta “Sample Maker”, a system designed for paint manufacturers and color laboratories that need to perform samples and tests to evaluate existing coating parameters with new colors and finishes before industrialization.
Companies, particularly those in the industrial painting sector, face the challenge of conducting high-quality coating tests with precision. These tests are essential for assessing specific coating parameters on small surfaces, such as samples, sheet metal pieces, or prototypes, to ensure that once scaled up, they meet the required quality standards. With the Lesta “Sample Maker,” it is possible to first transfer the coating parameters used in customers’ production lines to the small tested surfaces and then optimize these parameters, ensuring maximum precision.
“SAMPLE MAKER”: FEATURES
The “Sample Maker” by Lesta is a complete solution designed to ensure efficiency and precision in sample coating. The system stands out for the integration of various advanced technologies that optimize its performance and operational safety.
At the heart of the “Sample Maker” are the industrial robots “Kr 6 R 900-1” and “Kr 10 R 1100,” designed to perform coating operations with maximum precision. These robots ensure high repeatability and reliability, making them ideal for industrial applications requiring high standards.
The system is completed by a coating booth equipped with a containment island, an extraction wall, and a ventilator. This configuration ensures a safe, contamination-free working environment, improving the quality of the coating process.
To maintain hygiene and efficiency, the “Sample Maker” includes a cleaning station, an automatic cleaning station dedicated to the maintenance of spray guns and critical system components.
The operation control is managed by advanced software that allows the input and configuration of coating parameters, ensuring flexibility and customization of the process. The core of the electronic management system is the Lesta “Lecrob” Robot Controller, a control panel that guarantees precision and reliability in every operational phase.
From a power supply and connectivity perspective, the system operates with a three-phase 3x400V power supply, optimizing compressed air consumption. Additionally, it is equipped with an internet connection for remote monitoring, allowing operators to supervise activities and intervene promptly when necessary.
The system is designed to be compatible with “Atex 01” environments and offers customization options for various industrial applications. The Lesta “Sample Maker” provides complete control over coating parameters, ensuring traceability and repeatability of processes while minimizing paint usage for each sample.
The Lesta “Sample Maker” is the ideal solution for those seeking precision, efficiency, and cost savings in sample coating and production parameter management. With this system, companies can optimize liquid coating processes, achieving precise and repeatable results for every test. The Lesta “Sample Maker” is the perfect choice for improving final product quality, reducing operational costs, and ensuring efficient management of industrial production.
