THz Customer Spotlight: Aerobotix
For more than 15 years, Aerobotix has proven itself an innovative leader in FANUC robotic solutions for the aerospace and defense industries. Headquartered in Huntsville, Alabama, Aerobotix specializes in creating automated robotic solutions that are capable of painting, sanding and inspecting. Aerobotix has been a customer of Luna Innovations since 2007, and an incredible synergy has been formed with our combined technologies.
Powered by Luna’s award-winning T-Ray technology, Aerobotix has been able to differentiate itself within the industry by providing turnkey solutions previously unachievable with off-the-shelf alternatives. One example is with spray painting. While Aerobotix can automate spray painting, Luna’s T-Ray provides the technology to accurately measure the thickness of each layer of paint, telling the robot when to stop and move on to the next coat. The integrated automation of Aerobotix and the precision of Luna’s THz measurement technology provides the total solution. Within the realm of military aerospace, there are a multitude of specialty coatings.
