INDUSTRIAL PAINTING ROBOTS · DACH
Your Best Painter Will Retire. Your Worst One Called In Sick Today.
The oven runs. The conveyor runs. Your team is on the clock. But the only thing that stops your coating line is the person in the booth. We replace that single bottleneck with a self-learning robot that delivers expert-level quality — every cycle, every shift, with zero downtime.

SEE IT IN ACTION
Watch a Painter Teach the Robot in Under Two Minutes. Then Watch the Robot Outperform an Entire Shift
No programming. No code. No teach pendant. Your painter guides the weightless arm through the motion once — and the robot replicates it with sub-millimetre precision, forever.
OUR ROBOTS PAINT FOR
WHY THIS MATTERS
Three Problems. One Solution. A Robot in the Booth.
This isn't about technology for technology's sake. It's about protecting your people from one of the most toxic jobs in manufacturing, cutting the single largest source of emissions in your factory, and removing the only bottleneck that stops your production line from running at full capacity.
Protect Your People from a Job That Damages Their Health
Industrial painters are exposed to benzene, toluene, xylene, and dozens of volatile organic compounds every shift. Meta-analyses of paint industry workers show significantly reduced lung function – measurably lower forced expiratory volume and capacity compared to unexposed workers. The WHO reports a 20–40% increased cancer risk for people in regular contact with paint. A robot in the booth means your workers supervise from outside the hazard zone. Same expertise, radically safer work.

Reduce Your Factory's Largest Source of VOC Emissions
In the manufacturing facilities we've worked with across nearly 100 projects, over 60% of measurable VOC output originates from the coating process – making the spray booth the single biggest contributor to your factory's emissions profile. Robotic spray control optimises distance, angle, and overlap with mechanical precision, reducing overspray, paint waste, and the chemical load released with every cycle. That's measurable progress on your ESG targets.

Eliminate the Single Bottleneck That Stops Your Production Line
Your oven, ventilation, conveyor, and team all cost the same per hour whether parts are being painted or not. The gas runs, the energy runs, the wages run. The only variable that stops production is the human in the booth – breaks, fatigue, sick days, shift changes, lunch. A robot paints continuously. No pauses. No variation. Just consistent output, shift after shift.

THE REAL COST
When the Booth Stops, the Meter Keeps Running
Every minute your coating booth is idle — because of a break, a shift handover, a sick call, or simply because the painter is slower today — you pay the full operating cost of your entire line and produce nothing. The oven doesn't care. The gas bill doesn't care. The CO2 emissions don't care. They all run whether paint is hitting parts or not.
Zero
Fatigue-related stops per shift. No breaks, no energy dips, no Monday mornings.

“We were spending more time recruiting painters than actually painting. Now we run two shifts with one robot and three guys who used to be on the spray guns. The quality has never been this consistent — and my guys are happier because they're not breathing fumes all day”
— Alexander · Passt Coating AG · Client since 2021
THE TECHNOLOGY
Why Lesta's Self-Learning Is Unlike Any Other Robot on the Market
Most industrial robots require offline programming, teach pendants, or complex CAD/CAM workflows. Lesta robots learn directly from your best painter — and they do it through a mechanism no competitor has replicated.
The Motors Disengage
Completely
When you activate self-learning mode, the robot's motors switch off entirely. A pneumatic air compression system supports the arm's weight, making it virtually weightless – the lightest self-learning arm on the market. Your painter feels almost no resistance, just like holding a spray gun.
The Physical Arm Guarantees
Reachability
Because you're recording movements with the actual robot arm, every point you teach is physically reachable. No post-recording corrections, no surprises during production. If the arm reached it during teaching, it reaches it during painting. Every time.
Any Painter Can Use It on
Day One
The energy required to guide the arm is nearly identical to holding a manual spray gun. No learning curve. Our clients describe it the same way: "It's like dancing." Press start, guide the motion, press stop. The robot memorises everything at ±3mm repeatability.
From Installation to
Production in Four Steps
No programming. No long setup. Typical time from delivery to first painted part: 1–2 days.
01
We Install & Commission
Delivered, mounted, and configured in your existing spray booth. We handle everything: engineering, transport, assembly, calibration.
02
Your Painter Teaches
the Robot
The arm goes weightless. Your best painter guides it through the coating motion — one time. The robot memorises every movement, every angle, every speed.
03
Press Start. It
Paints.
The robot replicates the expert motion identically — every cycle, every shift, every day. Consistent quality at +45% more productive time.
04
Your Team
Supervises & Grows
Former painters become robot supervisors: monitoring quality, managing programmes for new parts, handling changeovers, and overseeing multiple robots as you scale. A career upgrade, not a consolation prize.
SIDE BY SIDE
Manual Spray vs. Robotic
Coating
This isn't about what's wrong with manual painting. It's about what becomes possible when you give your team better tools and safer conditions.
MANUAL SPRAY OPERATIONS
Coating Consistency
Quality depends on the consistency of experienced operators across shifts. Even your best painter has better and worse days.
Production Availability
Bound to human shift patterns. Breaks, fatigue, sick days, and handovers create natural gaps in output.
Paint Waste & Emissions
Overspray varies with manual technique. Distance, angle, and overlap are approximate, leading to higher material use and VOC release.
Worker Health
Daily exposure to VOCs, isocyanates, and particulates — even with PPE and ventilation. Cumulative long-term health risk remains.
Scalability
Growing capacity means finding and training more skilled painters — in a labour market where qualified coating professionals are increasingly rare.
Knowledge Retention
Your best painter's technique exists only in their hands. When they retire or leave, years of accumulated skill leave with them.
ROBOTIC COATING SYSTEM
Coating Consistency
Maintains the programmed spray path, distance, and angle identically every cycle. Your best painter's technique, replicated at 100% consistency.
Production Availability
Operates continuously – day and night, shift after shift. No fatigue, no breaks, no variation in performance over time.
Paint Waste & Emissions
Mechanically precise spray control optimises transfer efficiency. Measurably less overspray, less material waste, lower VOC output per part.
Worker Health
Workers supervise from outside the booth. Zero direct exposure to spray environments. The same expertise applied from a fundamentally safer position.
Scalability
Scale through automation, independent of the labour market. Add robots, not headcount. Three supervisors can manage what previously required six painters.
Knowledge Retention
The best painter's technique is recorded digitally and preserved permanently. It's available to every shift, every robot, every facility – forever.
We don't replace your people. We give them better jobs.
In every project we've delivered, the painters who previously worked inside the booth transitioned to robot supervision, quality management, or programming roles. They keep their expertise and employment — and they stop breathing carcinogens. That matters to us, and it should matter to you when you talk to your team about this change.
THE ROBONNEMENT FORMULA
One Robot. Three Supervisors.
Better Output, Better Jobs, Better Air.
The math is straightforward. But what the numbers don't capture is this: three of your people stop inhaling solvents every day. One of them might become the robot specialist who runs your entire coating department. You're not cutting jobs - you're upgrading them.

You Already Have the Team. The Robot Doesn't Add Headcount — It Redeploys It.
A qualified coating painter in the DACH region costs EUR 4,000-6,000/month in total employment costs — before you factor in turnover, training, and the production gaps when someone leaves.
Our subscription starts at EUR 3,000/month. But the real savings aren't in replacing a painter's salary. They're in the fact that your existing employees stay employed, move to supervision roles, and the robot adds 45% more productive painting time on top. Net cost goes down. Output goes up.
Over 50 manufacturers across Germany, Austria, and Switzerland have already made this switch.

What Manufacturers Ask Before Automating
“I've stood in spray booths across Germany, Austria, and Switzerland — nearly a hundred of them. And in every single one, I've seen the same thing: talented people doing work that damages their health, in a process that's the only thing standing between a running factory and a stopped one. We built Robonnement to fix that. Not with complicated technology that needs a PhD to operate, but with a robot that your best painter can teach in minutes — and that then delivers their expert quality, every cycle, without ever needing a break or a respirator. If you're reading this page, you probably already know you need this. Let's talk.
We are changing that. And we already started.”
