Innovation Class: Applications & Markets Innovation
Innovation Subclass: Construction / Demolition


Thanks to QLayers, coating large-scale industrial surfaces is becoming a controlled, efficient, and safe process.


Description:
In February 2021, QLayers launched its 10Q painting robot that is designed to coat large industrial surfaces. The semi-autonomous system can paint up to 2,150 square feet per hour. The system’s patented shielding system allows coating surfaces with high precision, accurate layer thickness and high transfer efficiency of up to 90%. QLayers’ solution can paint tanks that are a maximum of 99 feet high and claims to have less than 1% overspray outside of the robot’s hood.QLayers developed the system in partnership with Van der Ende Steel Protectors Group, which was founded in 1929 and is one of the largest Dutch specialists in the protection of steel against corrosion.

 

Analysis:
When it comes to maintaining and protecting steel surfaces against corrosion, precision and coating quality are essential. Current manual application methods, such as spray coating or application by rollers, have shown many drawbacks as they are laborious, time-consuming and hazardous for people and the environment. Long-term exposure to chemicals found in anti-corrosion coatings can cause chronic health issues due to the paint toxicity.The 10Q robot from QLayers is an innovative solution that transforms the traditional method of coating large-scale industrial surfaces into a fully controlled, efficient, and safe process. – Steve Crowe
