Automation Systems Integration & Turnkey Services

Whether designing new automation systems or modifying existing ones, Ritchie Automation provides industry-leading service and support. We begin by making an assessment of the scope of your automation project, including part size & type, coating method, and any current operating procedures.

From there, we begin engineering an optimized automation system design based on your specifications and budget requirements. Our automation systems adhere to lean manufacturing methods, ensuring a cost-effective solution without compromising quality. We have the in-house resources to perform any aspect of automation systems integration; including

  • Process Engineering
  • Project Management
  • Panel Build / Fabrication
  • Aftermarket Support
  • Mechanical, Electrical, & Control Engineering
  • System Startup & Debug 

 
Paint & Finishing

Automated paint finishing solutions are designed to maximize transfer efficiency, provide consistent results, and improve operator safety. We employ the latest atomization techniques, state of the art equipment, and controls technology for consistent coating results; even in areas that aren't visible during the painting & finishing process.

Simple Paint Triggering Systems

Simple automated paint application systems sense the size and shape of parts to be painted, track them as they travel through the finishing process, and apply paint material accordingly. Simple paint application triggering systems reduce over spray by activating paint applicators only when necessary.

Style-Based Paint Triggering Systems

Style based paint triggering systems feature the latest technology in automated control, providing the most consistent finishing results available today. Style-based triggering systems assign each part to be painted a specific set of parameters, allowing paint applicators to instantaneously adapt to the next style.

Process Control / Factory Automation Systems

Our process controls and factory automation systems automate any “highly repetitive” insertion or assembly task. We are experienced in providing custom automation solutions for pick & place, paint robots, part tracking, feed systems, automated loading/unloading, conveyor systems, automated assembly, and bar code & RFID identification.
