ROBOT WITH MAGNETIC SHOES APPLIED TO THE METALLIC SURFACES COATING PROCESS

The present invention aims at developing a robot for applying coating in regions called “difficult access areas” of offshore platforms and ships, such as curved, vertical surfaces, or surfaces with negative inclination angles. The design concept was developed based on a low-weight painting system, integrated into a vehicle with magnetic shoes (104), which produces a constant magnetic force on the metallic surface, capable of guaranteeing the support of the vehicle in the different areas of application. The floating magnetic system aims at ensuring that the wheels (102) have the necessary friction for the vehicle to move. The use of the equipment allows greater productivity, with agility and speed in the application of coatings, reduction of coating losses during the process, repeatability and guarantee of the thickness of the applied layer, in addition to allowing the application of the coating on vertical surfaces, with negative inclinations or curves, without the need for access using scaffolding, dispensing with scaffolding assembly and disassembly services and the use of ropes by professionals for work on the sea, with the consequent reduction in the number of workers on the sea and the reduction of exposure of the man in unhealthy environments.
