Abstract: A method of monitoring cleaning of an apparatus for applying a coating medium to an object, the apparatus including a rotatable deflecting element for atomizing the coating medium; and a cleaning medium line for conducting a cleaning medium to the deflecting element; where the method including commanding performance of a cleaning operation including delivery of the cleaning medium through the cleaning medium line towards the deflecting element while rotating the deflecting element; collecting operational values of at least one operational parameter of the apparatus for the cleaning operation; comparing the operational values with reference values of the at least one operational parameter for the cleaning operation; and determining whether the cleaning operation was successful or unsuccessful based on the comparison. A method of cleaning an apparatus for applying a coating medium to an object is also provided.

Abstract: A method of determining a characteristic of a fluid in an apparatus for applying a coating medium to an object, the apparatus including a fluid line; an outlet; a first coating medium source; a second coating medium source; a cleaning medium source; and a valve arrangement configured to independently bring each of the first coating medium source, the second coating medium source and the cleaning medium source in communication with the outlet through the fluid line; where the method includes conducting a fluid through the fluid line, the fluid including the first coating medium, the second coating medium and/or the cleaning medium; sending ultrasonic waves to the fluid in the fluid line; sensing echo signals induced in the fluid by the ultrasonic waves; converting the echo signals to electronic response data; and determining a parameter value of at least one parameter of the fluid in the fluid line based on the electronic response data.

Abstract: A robot controller is adapted to execute a program an indication of a setpoint speed of a robot arm, an indication of a contemporaneous setpoint fluid flow per unit time of a spray gun supported by the robot arm, and an indication of a contemporaneous further setpoint quantity of the spray gun. The robot controller is configured to obtain an estimate of actual speed of the robot arm; determine whether the estimate deviates from the setpoint speed; and, in case of a deviation, adjust the setpoint fluid flow per unit time in accordance with a first compensation function. In an embodiment, the robot controller is further configured to concurrently adjust, in case of a deviation, the further setpoint quantity in accordance with a second compensation function, which is different from the first compensation function.

Abstract: A method of determining a degree of clogging of discharge holes of an apparatus for applying a coating medium to an object, the method including conducting air through the discharge holes; determining an output air pressure between an air flow regulator of the apparatus and the discharge holes, the air flow regulator being arranged to regulate a flow of the air; and determining a degree of clogging of the discharge holes based on the output air pressure. An apparatus for applying a coating medium to an object, a calibration system including an apparatus and a blocking device, an industrial robot including an apparatus, and a method of determining clogging characteristics of an apparatus, are also provided.
