ST. PAUL, Minn., May 16, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Robotics
Business Review (RBR) named the 3M™ Finesse-It™ Robotic Paint
Repair System as a 2022 RBR50 Robotics Innovation Award
Honoree. Using data from an advanced vision system, the
3M Finesse-It Robotic Paint Repair
System repairs paint defects on automobiles coming off the assembly
line. The RBR50 celebrates companies around the world who create
original, and innovative solutions.
As an honoree of the 'Product Introduction' category,
3M is being recognized for
introducing a new commercial solution which has the potential to
positively impact markets or the robotics sector.
Widely recognized throughout the world as a leading indicator of
robotics innovation leadership, the RBR50 Robotics Innovation
Awards are also a critical measure of robotics sector growth.
RBR editor Briana Wessling
recognized the 3M Finesse-It Robotic
Paint Repair System's ingenuity in her analysis.
"The Finesse-It Robotic Paint Repair System fills a unique hole
in the robotic marketplace," Wessling said. "There are not many
robots like it, and none that are as precise as 3M's system,
despite the fact that nearly every car that comes off the
assembly line needs some sanding and polishing. This is one of
the most intensive manual operations on the assembly
line, and 3M's system completely automates
the process."
The 3M Finesse-It Robotic Paint
Repair System also won a SURCAR award in October of 202
besting 23 other presentations for the honor.
