About INROPA
INROPA Programmer lets operators create and adjust robot paint paths away from a live production line, with painting parameters such as speed, angle and spray settings attached to the program. Its Automatic Programmer adds 3D scanning and surface recognition: workpieces move through a line, are scanned, and receive generated paint strokes and robot motions for their actual geometry.
The company also offers application-specific WindowPainter, CabinetPainter, SteelPainter and BladePainter systems. These adapt scanning and path generation to the size and surface needs of their respective products. INROPA supports mixed robot brands in a cell and provides direct project and technical support from Aalborg, Denmark.
