Abstract
An automatic coating apparatus which is arranged to guarantee higher operational reliability, particularly to preclude coating defects as caused by malfunctioning of a cartridge gripper (56) or by the use of an non-replenished or deficiently replenished paint cartridge. A cartridge gripper assembly (55) is constituted by a gripper member (56) with gripper claws for gripping a paint cartridge (25), a grip detector switch (67) which is adapted to detect whether or not the paint cartridge (25) is securely gripped by the gripper. (56), and a replenishment level detector switch (68) which is adapted to detect whether or not the paint cartridge (25) is replenished with paint to a predetermined extent. Therefore, as the paint cartridge (25) is gripped by the cartridge gripper (56), the grip condition on the paint cartridge (25) can be monitor by the grip detector switch (67). At the same time, a replenished paint level within the cartridge (25) can be monitored from outside by the replenishment level detector switch (68).
