-32. (canceled)
A method for coating a component, comprising:
- positioning at least one component in a coating position relative to an application device;
- and
- applying a coating to the component using the application device;
- wherein the component to be coated is brought into the coating position by a least one handling robot;
- and
- further wherein the application device is mounted movably to a fixed structure with a parallel kinematic.
3 more elements
A method, comprising:
- using at least one application device to apply a coating to at least one component, wherein the at least one application device is installed to a fixed structure;
- and
- supplying components to a suitable coating position relative to the application, device using a supply device that has at least one handling robot which brings the components into the coating position;
- wherein the handling robot is configured to move one of the components while the application device applies the coating to the one of the components, thereby moving the one of the components relative to the application device while the application device applies the coating to the one of the components;
- wherein the application device is mounted movably to the fixed structure with a parallel kinematic.
