Abstract: A coating system using a protective layer forming material includes a coating device which is movable according to information taught by an operator, and disposed adjacent to a transport line for an object to be coated. The coating system includes a roller mechanism having a roller and a cushion mechanism. The roller is connected to the coating device. The coating system further includes a supply mechanism which supplies liquid material to the roller. The liquid material is dried to form a peelable protective layer on the object. A force is applied to the roller on an external surface of the object through the cushion mechanism. The roller is lifted and lowered corresponding to unevenness of the external surface.

Abstract: A coating system (10) for forming a protective layer includes a roller mechanism (34) provided at an end of an arm (46) of a robot (16a) as an end effector. The roller mechanism (34) has a roller (48), a holder (86) for supporting the roller (48), and a pipe (112). The holder (86) is removably attached to the roller (48). The pipe (112) supports the roller (48) in a freely rotating manner, and delivers the protective layer forming material to the roller (48).
