​Innovative solution for
​coating blades

​BL8 is the industry's first automated paint robot
​that coats wind turbine blades faster, safer,​and with more consistent quality. 
It is the first robot of its kind that is able to coat without overspray.  ​

​

​The BL8 robot uses cutting-edge technology that transforms the traditional method of coating 
​large-scale industrial surfaces  into a fully controlled, efficient and safe process.

Coating challenges in the wind turbine industry

When it comes to coating process, wind turbine blade manufacturers often face the following challenges:

• High inspection costs, due to the low controllability of the coating process
• Performance problems caused by poor and inconsistent coating 
• Costs of wasted paint due to overspray and higher coating 'under limits' – minimal thickness of the coated layer –because manual coating is inconsistent 
• Shortage of specialized workers because the job is not appealing to young people and is strenuous and ​dangerous
• Problems to keep up with demand because the energy output per blade must grow to fulfil the demand for wind energy

We offer you a reliable solution

​When comparing to the current manual coating process and even to the current available paint robots, 
our patented technology offers the following advantages: 

• ​No overspray  
• Accurate coating layer 
• All layer thicknesses are possible 
• Automated quality control on every ​position of the blade ​

• Consistent automated performance   
• No people working on heights 
  
• ​Environmentally friendly process 

​The biggest advantage of the robot is that the coating application technology does not require any modification in the mechanics or control of wind turbines so even the paint will stay the same which reduces the threshold for implementation significantly.
