Abstract

A robot for coating a vehicle body includes a coating head, a reservoir for storing coating material, a supply device capable of controlling the pressure of coating material flowing through a circulation path provided between the coating head and the reservoir, and an arm having a coating head and a supply device. The arm is a multi-axis arm having multiple arm members and a movable shaft connecting each arm member to each other, and it has a posture control means that controls the posture of the multiple arm members during coating of the vehicle body by the coating head to maintain the relative position of the coating head and the supply device at a constant level or to suppress fluctuations in the relative position within a predetermined allowable range.
