  • Patent number: 12055421
    Abstract: A method of determining a degree of clogging of discharge holes of an apparatus for applying a coating medium to an object, the method including conducting air through the discharge holes; determining an output air pressure between an air flow regulator of the apparatus and the discharge holes, the air flow regulator being arranged to regulate a flow of the air; and determining a degree of clogging of the discharge holes based on the output air pressure. An apparatus for applying a coating medium to an object, a calibration system including an apparatus and a blocking device, an industrial robot including an apparatus, and a method of determining clogging characteristics of an apparatus, are also provided.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9067321
    Abstract: A system for visualizing process errors that occur in connection with processing a workpiece by means of a process tool and an industrial robot moving the tool along a path in relation to the workpiece during the processing. The system is configured to store information on process errors and information on where on the robot path the error occurred upon detecting the process errors and to present a visualization of the robot path and the position of the stored errors in relation to the robot path.
