Robots in Aerospace: Robotics & Laser Technology in the Aerospace Industry

Robots in Aerospace: Robotics & Laser Technology in the Aerospace Industry

XYREC, which launched its North American headquarters at Port San Antonio one year ago, is transforming how aircraft worldwide will be maintained. By equipping the world’s largest movable industrial robot with powerful advanced laser technology, XYREC’s innovation is able to strip the paint from aircraft fuselage in record time and with minimal waste. What’s more, the revolutionary technology does a world of good for the environment by eliminating the need for harsh chemicals and thousands of gallons of water per aircraft that are required for traditional de-painting methods. Join us for an exciting demonstration of XYREC's robot and engage in a discussion that also includes project partners from the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI).
