Release operators from the teaching tasks of painting robots - SWANIST. Swanist solves the difficult problem of robot teaching. Swanist is a "Teaching Assistant Software" developed specifically for Swan robots. It reduces the previous work processes and allows for painting simulations in a virtual space while viewing a screen linked to the actual robot. It simplifies the workability of painting production, contributes to reducing painting costs, decreasing paint consumption, improving quality, managing film thickness, enhancing maintenance efficiency, addressing environmental concerns, and suppressing VOC emissions.

Optimized for painting cosmetics, molded products, lipsticks, and rouges. By simply replacing the fixed gun of the spindle line with the dedicated robot "Swan C," digital painting is realized. The intelligent painting robot "Swan C" improves painting costs. Simulation of coating efficiency through fluid analysis: ● Standard fixed gun and spindle painting: approximately 7% ● Painting robot system "Swan C": approximately 42% (According to tests by Takubo Engineering Co., Ltd.)

● R technology improves quality, painting, and the environment The rotational painting "R technology" consolidates all necessary equipment for painting into one robotic system, solving all issues related to coating quality, painting costs, painting conditions, and their management through advanced programming technology. ● Reproducing painting in a virtual space (DX) The teaching assistant software "Swanist" has further evolved to reproduce painting in a virtual space, allowing for numerical management. All processes, including work data acquisition, work arrangement, angle adjustment, teaching, and condition setting, are digitized, significantly improving the teaching process. ● Rotational painting possible for long products The range of workpieces that can be rotationally painted is extensive, covering everything from automotive interior parts and exterior parts to aero parts, as well as mobile communication devices, cosmetics, and even long products like road center poles.

The indium mirror coating system is a dedicated coating process optimized for forming indium-based high-reflectivity mirror films. The standard process consists of a 3-coat, 3-bake structure (repeating application and drying three times), and the management of film thickness, heating conditions, and environmental control during each step significantly affects optical properties and adhesion. In particular, parameters such as the concentration of fine particles, temperature and humidity, and electrostatic environment within the painting booth influence the final film quality (reflectivity, durability), making the formation of the coating in a clean and stable environment extremely important. **Features and Benefits of Indium Mirror Coating** - A new metal color spray method that achieves reduced environmental impact: A coating system using spray painting technology as a replacement for traditional plating processes. - Compatibility with various materials: Forms a highly adhesive and uniform film on various substrates such as stainless steel, resin, and glass. - Excellent radio wave transmission characteristics: Equipped with radio wave transmission performance suitable for radar and communication devices, differing from optical high-reflectivity films, making it ideal for sensor-related applications. - Automation compatibility and multilayer coating: Can be integrated into automated lines in conjunction with Takubo's painting robots. Durability can be adjusted through multilayering from the base layer to the protective layer.

Adding decorative elements or UV hard coats on top of the indium mirror coat (intermediate layer) for multifunctionality and diverse expressiveness. The indium mirror coating system does not guarantee the expression of image photos. It represents a world of creative possibilities. Verification through painting tests is necessary. For creating samples and establishing conditions for sample production, the Data Pro (a painting robot dedicated to data creation) is optimal. - Color samples - Various color developments possible with matte and mirror finishes - The base material is diverse.

On August 3, 2025 (Sunday), at Fuji Speedway in Gotemba City, the rear Lexus emblem of the Anest Iwata Racing Toyota Lexus GT car was coated with "Indium Mirror Coating" during the Super GT300 event. The color is blue (glossy) DRIFT Mirror BLUE. 【Indium Mirror Coating is applied using the painting robot "Swan Pro"】 Indium Mirror Coating is applied by the painting robot "Swan Pro." The painting process consists of 3 coats and 3 bakes. 【Indium Mirror Coating System】 Indium Mirror Coating is achieved through the Indium Mirror Coating System. - Class 10,000 clean room - Painting robots "Swan Pro" and "Swanist" - Paint supply system "Syringe Pump System" - Transport system for painted items "Co-Swan" - Dedicated drying machine for painting "Dry Tech" This system is designed for high mass production efficiency. 【Adding decorations or UV hard coat over Indium Mirror Coating (intermediate coat) for multifunctionality and diverse expressiveness】 - Abundant color samples - Various color developments possible for matte and mirror finishes.
