On May 15, 2007 the three party MOA agreementbetween HAILockheedEmvatis was signed for the
erection of the new depainting facility for fighters and
helicopters. The Process equipment were provided by
PAULI SYSTEMS
On June 11, 2007 the contractor Emvatis started at the
site
On Dec. 5, 2007 the entire integrated facility was
completed (building, equipment, training).
PROJECTS MILESTONES IN BRIEF
The project was completed within a six month
period, a record time due to the complexity and
specialization of the equipment.
The facility will be utilized immediately for the
depainting of the U.S. F-16 fighters under the CCIP
program and in parallel for the Hellenic fighters and
other strategic alliances.

FACILITY DESCRIPTION
It consists of:
The enclosure
The suitable compressed air equipment system.
The enclosures air ventilation system. The plastic media blasting system.
The recycling system of the plastic media.
The facility is a model project where the increasedproductivity and reduction of operational costs coincideswith the latest recycling technology and environmentalfriendliness.

Depainting is performed by
blasting the surface of theaircrafts with soft plasticmedia inside the processarea of the enclosure.
The method is the most
sufficient for the substratesurfaces of fighter aircraftmetallic and composites.
The time needed to fullydepaint an F-16 aircraft is 3
working days.

The facility is fully automatedwith the capability to collectand reuse the plastic media
It is mandatory for the processto maintain the reused media atthe correct size and weight.
Capability to recycle the plasticmedia at least 12 times during
depainting.
PLASTIC MEDIA RECYCLING SYSTEM
Particle separatorfor undersize /
oversize and highdensity.
Plastic mediacollection trench
Storage of the plasticmedia in a hopper for
reuse

the protection of the environment
Advantages :
Fully developed technology
USAF approved for most type of aircraft
Safe system for the operators
Liquid wastes virtually eliminated.
There are no VOCs emitted to the atmosphere.
The plastic media is recyclable
Less operational cost compared to the old methods.
Plastic Media Blasting (PMB)
