User-friendly app makes robotics surface treatment accessible to everyone

RoboTwin integrated its smart teaching device with Wandelbots NOVA so operators can teach robots by demonstrating movements. The integration helps RoboTwin support more robot systems and gives system integrators better tools for easy-to-teach surface treatment apps.

Anwendungsfall im Überblick

Surface treatment processes like painting and powder coating are difficult to automate, especially when skilled workers are scarce.RoboTwin makes robot programming more accessible by allowing operators to teach movements through physical demonstration. Integrated with Wandelbots NOVA, these movements become robot-independent programs that can be tested virtually and executed on different robot systems.The result is a more intuitive approach to robotic surface treatment that reduces programming effort and makes automation accessible to a wider range of users.

ÜBER DAS UNTERNEHMEN

RoboTwin is a robotics and automation start-up that develops smart teaching devices so workers can teach robots quickly and flexibly without programming.

ZIELSETZUNG

Use Wandelbots NOVA to develop no-code programming solutions that control a wide range of robots and connect surface treatment apps to RoboTwin teaching devices.

LÖSUNG

RoboTwin integrated its smart teaching device into Wandelbots NOVA to generate robot programs in robot-agnostic Wandelscript, helping integrators connect with multiple robot brands and peripherals.

WIRKUNG

RoboTwin and Wandelbots worked closely on the integration, with Wandelbots supporting technical work and testing on physical robots.

Herausforderungen & Prozess

Surface treatment tasks such as powder coating and wet painting are strongly affected by labor shortages, making them a natural target for robotic automation. RoboTwin addresses this by allowing operators to demonstrate movements that can become robot programs. By connecting with Wandelbots NOVA, RoboTwin can make its teaching device compatible with a broader range of robotic systems. The integration uses NOVA APIs and Wandelscript so demonstrated paths can be transformed into robot-agnostic programs that run on virtual or physical robots. During the proof of concept, RoboTwin worked as a Wandelbots beta tester and validated the combined workflow, including program generation, testing in Robotpad, and execution across robot environments.

“In some productions, robotic applications are increasingly controlled from apps. Our collaboration lets integrators using Wandelbots NOVA include RoboTwin teaching tools directly in that workflow.”

Wirkung & Ergebnisse

RoboTwin expects revenue growth because the NOVA integration opens access to new customers and a wider range of markets. The team also observed time savings for testing and deployment through Robotpad visualization. For end users, the combined solution improves the experience of teaching and running robotic applications. For RoboTwin, the unified NOVA environment also supports smoother onboarding for support engineers and sales teams.
