KAEFER Energy provides robotic solutions for inspection and maintenance, particularly for the surface protection discipline. We have carried out successful robotic projects within ultra high pressure (UHT) water jetting and sandblasting, mainly in the pre-treatment and preparation of large volumes of surfaces on tanks, pipes and deck to be painted. We see the value of using a robot in the pre-treatment phase, including ensuring more consistent quality and optimal execution of the work. We also have experience of using robots equipped with advanced sensors and cameras to thoroughly inspect surfaces and detect damage or defects. This helps to identify potential problems at an early stage and reduces the risk of unexpected errors.

In the areas where KAEFER Energy operates on a daily basis, we still see limitations in the use of robots, but KAEFER Energy is working purposefully to ensure that our services beyond surface protection are increasingly carried out with the help of robots. The scope will gradually expand to include insulation, scaffolding, inspection and other services.
