Automated Thermal Spraying for Bent Pipes: Faster Programming with AutoPath
Overview Thermal spraying of bent or curved pipes traditionally requires extensive robot programming to ensure correct spray angles, stand-off distances, and coating coverage. Each new pipe geometry can take days to program manually, often demanding high levels of robotics expertise. The result is long deployment times, costly trial-and-error, and inconsistent...
Autonomous Sandblasting for Aerospace MRO — How Augmentus Unlocks High-Mix, Rapid-Turnaround Operations
Industry Context Aerospace Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) companies face one of the most extreme forms of high-mix, high-variability manufacturing. Every aircraft component—engine housings, landing gear brackets, turbine blades, composite panels—arrives with different levels of wear, corrosion, and dimensional deviation. Sandblasting is one of the most critical yet time-consuming stages,...
