New software platform for advanced line monitoring

The Digital Painting Suite is a software platform for collecting and analyzing data from a paint system. The objective is to enable the user to analyze the performance and status of the paint system, and also enable preventive maintenance.

 

The predictive maintenance is achieved by continuously collecting data from process equipment through IPS. Threshold values for operating hours, number of operations etc. can be used to determine the state and wear of the component. Equipment integrity check will help to improve the quality by verifying the required parts on the atomizer before starting production.

 

With more than 20,000 painting robots installed worldwide, ABB’s decades of experience have culminated in PC software designed with the customer’s needs in mind.

Key benefits

Real-time monitoring for reduced downtime

The suite enables live monitoring of paint robots and equipment, helping operators detect issues early and avoid unplanned stops - boosting uptime and overall line efficiency.

Smart asset and lifecycle management

Features like asset tracking and lifecycle monitoring let you track component usage (e.g., atomizers, valves) and set maintenance thresholds. This maximizes part life, improves traceability, and supports predictive maintenance.

Consistent paint quality

With tailor-made analytics and customizable triggers, users can analyze production data in real time or post-process to identify deviations - helping reduce defects and ensure consistent paint quality.
