GALATEK, a premier robot integrator based in Czech Republic, specializes in comprehensive surface treatment technologies and environmental safeguard equipment. By building custom robotic spray-painting systems, they help manufacturers achieve pristine surface quality while strictly adhering to complex environmental and safety standards.
The Bottleneck
The speed limit of traditional integration
Translating fluid human movement into robot programs makes integration.
- Hundreds of engineering hours
Traditional FANUC paint robot programming is tedious. Manually plotting complex wet painting trajectories coordinate-by-coordinate is time-consuming. - Delayed factory handovers
Testing, tweaking, and refining new paint programs directly on the client’s factory floor cost production time of the robotic cell, draining the end-user’s ROI before production even begins. - Losing the painter’s touch
Translating the subtle motions of professional spray painting into rigid math often results in a robotic path that lacks the craftsman’s intuitive technique. - Waiting for programmers
Relying on highly specialized programmers to manage every single product changeover makes automation financially unviable for high-mix manufacturers.
The Solution
From deep industry know-how to a 66% faster workflow
- Universal OEM compatibility
The tracking devices seamlessly integrate into GALATEK’s custom cells, effortlessly handling both FANUC and ABB robots out of the box.
- 66% faster programming
By switching to a Demonstrate-Generate-Automate workflow, GALATEK and their clients now generate complex robot programs up to two-thirds faster than traditional teach-pendant methods.
- Digitalizing wet painting
Instead of guessing coordinates, the operator physically guides the tool. The RoboTeach and RoboTwin systems perfectly capture the exact physical nuances of wet painting without event touching a teach pendant.
