AkzoNobel Powder Coatings Partners with CoatingAI to Explore New Frontiers in Sustainability
The software co-developed by AkzoNobel’s Powder Coatings business and coatingAI is using artificial intelligence to help customers improve the application process and reduce their carbon footprint.
The industry-first technology, called Flightpath, optimizes equipment settings to reduce defects and overspray and improve powder consumption – helping to reduce costs, avoid rework, and save time and energy. The software enables customers to optimize equipment settings such as gun motion and achieve more uniform, consistent coverage with fewer flaws – all thanks to AI-powered recommendations.
The AI-based software has been in development for two years and an exclusivity agreement has just been signed by both parties – who joined forces after first crossing paths during AkzoNobel’s Paint the Future start-up challenge in 2021.
