  • Publication number: 20230182317
    Abstract: A sealant application apparatus includes a seal gun, a distance meter, a moving mechanism and a controller. The seal gun has a nozzle for discharging sealant toward a fastener. The distance meter is fixed to the nozzle. The distance meter measures a distance from a measurement position to a surface of the sealant. The moving mechanism moves the seal gun relatively to the fastener. The controller controls the moving mechanism and the seal gun. The sealant is started to be discharged out from the seal gun in a state where the nozzle has been positioned to cover the fastener at a position away from a surface of the object by a predetermined distance. Subsequently, the sealant is applied to the fastener under a sealant application condition according to the distance measured by the distance meter while moving the nozzle away from the surface of the object.
