Finish more wheels without hiring with Lesta+IMI

Automating robotic coating is more than just generating a painting path with a robot. It’s automating part transfer to maximize the robot’s potential for continuous spraying, while giving you a level of consistency and increased capacity you’ve never seen before.

Meet the robot in charge.

A Lesta Self-Learning Finishing Robot records the movement and spray technique of your best painter in a weightless learning mode. The skills of the painter are then saved and repeated on future jobs. It’s so easy, you can be painting robotically on Day One following installation.

  • Increase production
  • Accurate powder application
  • Improve wheel quality and appearance
  • Proper air retention from an evenly coated bead surface
  • Reduce manual processes and stress on employees

Less effort. More Wheels.

Know your zones to get more wheels from the automated wheel refinishing system.

A wheel refinishing system never stops with an automated conveyor as the driver. Wheels move through the load, coat, cure, cool, and unload zones at a line speed dictated by the cure time. The amount of time needed for the wheel to cure in the oven sets the pace of the line in each zone.

LestaUSA training includes how the conveyor line speed dictates the amount of time the wheel will be in each zone. Mastering zones allows a system to run at its maximum potential and even finish wheels unattended while at break and lunch.

 

Designed to fit your facility and your capacity goals.

Works with existing equipment.

LestaUSA automated systems are designed to grow and evolve as you do. Tell us your cure time and we’ll tell you how many wheels you can finish or what equipment you will need to add to meet your goals.
