COLUMBUS, OH--(Marketwired - Oct 21, 2013) - Battelle has developed a robotic system to repair the windows of the world's airplanes. This system is a marriage of existing Battelle technology called the Automated Maintenance Robot (AMR) and a proven manual method of transparency restoration. But this isn't just removing bugs and chips -- it's refurbishing expensive aircraft parts that can be reused, saving time and money while improving precision and consistency.
