Modern Paint Hangar
L-3 Mission Integration has two paint hangars. The primary facility is capable of painting the surface area of a Boeing 747-400. It is equipped with two platform lifts that can move the length and width of the hangar to reduce cycle time. An electrostatic paint system reduces overspray and increases painting efficiency. A foam-water deluge system, four foam-water nozzles, and ultraviolet and infrared sensors provide excellent fire protection during the painting process. The second facility is capable of de-painting a Boeing 757. This advanced, temperature-controlled facility offers five automated ventilation and exhaust methods to facilitate different washing, de-painting or painting procedures. A high-capacity filtration system allows L-3 Mission Integration to perform painting/de-painting services in a nearly particle-free environment. This facility also houses numerous water and solution tanks, and an aqueous film forming foam (AFFF) emergency fire system, with over a million gallons available for fire safety purposes. Furthermore, there are workstands and component-holding fixtures that improve cycle time in de-painting and painting operations.
