ABSTRACT:
A self-contained work center for automatic spray finishing of parts, having an elevated platform with a turntable mounted thereon which is rotatable about a vertical axis, a robot manipulator fixedly mounted relative to the vertical axis, wherein the turntable ends are rotatable through a circular path, at least part of which includes a partially protected booth for collecting paint residue and overspray. The robot manipulator has a movable arm and spray applicator capable of movement over a limited range so as to provide a predetermined envelope of possible work areas for spray finishing, and a portion of the turntable end path and at least a portion of the spray booth are included with this envelope. The apparatus includes an access position to the turntable for mounting and removing parts associated with the spray finishing operation. A service enclosure is located beneath the elevated platform for housing electrical and hydraulic components for cooperatively operating the robot manipulator and turntable.
