Designed for seamless 24/7 continuous operation and full ATEX compliance, these 100% Italian-engineered solutions enhance workplace safety while allowing facilities to scale production capacity effortlessly.

Investing in painting robotics is not merely a technological upgrade, but also a strategy for financial optimisation. Automating the painting process delivers immediate savings by drastically reducing overspray and energy consumption, while ensuring consistent quality that helps minimise waste and scrap costs. In addition, it enables continuous operation and increased production capacity, along with many other benefits that we explore in this article.

What are the advantages of automation in painting?

Resource savings and painting quality

Investing in LESTA painting robotics helps improve production efficiency and optimise the use of resources.

The main benefits include:

  • Reduced overspray
  • Lower energy consumption
  • Consistent painting quality
  • Reduced waste

Automation also enables the use of next-generation coatings while maintaining consistent quality over time.

This is a significant advantage for companies operating in the surface treatment industry that require consistently high-quality standards.

Increased productivity and production flexibility

Robotic systems enable continuous production, allowing companies to operate 24/7 and increase production capacity.

The integration of robotics also facilitates production scale-up, making it easier to adapt to changing production requirements and growing market demand.

Safety and regulatory compliance

The use of robotic systems helps improve safety throughout the painting process. ATEX-certified solutions enable safe operation even in hazardous or complex environments.

This can also help reduce insurance costs.

Incentives and return on investment

Investing in painting robotics allows companies to benefit from tax incentives and depreciation allowances, as well as government incentives supporting digitalisation.

These measures help accelerate return on investment, making automation a financially sustainable choice.
