Set and Actual
Set, on top, is the limit value; Actual, below, shows the kV and µA actually delivered.
Smart AI Series
Smart AI
Describe your part; let Smart AI suggest the setting.
AI support for powder coating settings. Enter the part's geometry, material, powder type and working conditions; Smart AI suggests a ready setting for gun distance, head group, kV, µA and air, and the screen keeps track of the values throughout production.
Introduction Film
Meet Smart AI in 2 Minutes.
The world's first powder coating unit with integrated AI. In manual application it supports the operator and teaches the right setting; in automatic systems it delivers major efficiency gains, and it is the only unit that integrates with OWL.
01 Describe the Part
First, Describe Your Part.
Smart AI is started from the unit's screen. In a few steps you describe your part and working conditions; the system works out the setting.
- Geometry and sizeThe basic part geometry and size are chosen from flat, small, perforated / wire, profile, deep and round parts.
- MaterialSteel, aluminium, cast iron, stainless steel and galvanized.
- Surface preparationHow the part's surface was prepared is chosen from 7 methods.
- Powder typeEpoxy, polyester, hybrid, polyurethane and acrylic.
- EnvironmentAmbient and part temperature, humidity, indoor or outdoor.
- Application conditionsHose diameter and type, sleeve wear (visual check) and injector type are also taken into account.
02 Ready Setting
Let Smart AI Suggest the Setting.
Based on your inputs, Smart AI offers a ready setting: gun distance, head group, kV, µA and air. The values are sent to the unit with a single touch.
- DistanceGun to part
- Head groupDeflector / nozzle
- kVVoltage
- µACurrent
- AirMain and assist
Once applied, the screen shows whether the values are actually being delivered throughout production.
Smart air control
Main and assist air are controlled by separate valves and sensors. Even if compressor pressure drops, the valves open; air flow stays constant and Actual stays at Set.
Maintenance tracking
Usage time of wear parts is tracked against their service life. When a part reaches end of life, the screen prompts a replacement.
QR-coded manuals
The screen has QR-coded manuals and a connection menu; spare parts and user manuals open with a phone camera.
03 Self-Improving System
Better With Every Use.
Smart AI improves itself with feedback from its users.
- FeedbackSmart AI users report the results they get with the suggested settings.
- Data centerThe data is collected and processed in the STRONG3000 data center.
- Environment and deviceWhich results are achieved in which conditions, and how the units operate, is monitored.
- Better suggestionsThe collected experience feeds into future setting suggestions.
04 Mobile App
Smart AI in Your Pocket, Too.
Smart AI is also in the STRONG3000 mobile app. Photograph the part, let the conditions be added automatically and get the suggested setting.
Configurations
Choose Your Setup.
Smart AI — Powder Coating (Hopper)
With a fluidized powder hopper; for long runs in one color.
Smart AI — Powder Coating (Multicolor)
Draws powder straight from the box; for shops that change color often.
Smart AI + OWL
The only unit that integrates with OWL; intelligent motion and ready settings together on complex geometries.
Smart AI — Powder Enamel
Configured for vitreous / porcelain powder enamel application.
Automatic Control
Control Automatic Guns Too.
Smart AI’s intelligent control extends to automatic lines too. STRONG3000 automatic control cabinets manage many automatic guns from a single point, and the voltage (kV) and current (µA) of each gun can be adjusted independently.
It integrates with reciprocator and robot lines, enabling repeatable, operator-independent series production with recipes.
