Active Tech Scouting Effort

Robotic Blasting & Painting

NEW OPPORTUNITY!

Goal:

Identify an autonomous/robotic system capable of abrasive blasting, painting, and inspection of confined spaces.

Requirements:

  • Capable of work at height within a confined space
  • Efficiently removing surface coatings, painting, and inspecting material condition in confined spaces without requiring support personnel in the immediate work area
  • Eliminate need for gas free safety and blast PPE for workers
  • Allow for continuous, remote, visual inspection of the work area to monitor/prevent damage to substrate while performing blasting operations
  • Incorporate rotary blast and paint spray tooling
  • Enable recovery of grit blast media through same point of entry as blast operating area
  • Capable of negotiating obstacles and the variable dimensions within confined work spaces
  • Have a safety shut off
  • Have a tethered recovery method for manual removal in emergency situations
  • Be ruggedized to withstand many repeated operating cycles

Technical Considerations:  

  • Blasting system must be capable of removing 12-20 MILS of high solid or epoxy paint
  • The current blast method if removing/prepping to SP-10 is with medium coal slag media
  • Inspection system must be capable of determining a profile within 2-4.5 MILS tolerances
