Depaint the big easy way
A North Carolina Air National Guard C-130 Hercules waits for depaint operations to begin at the 402nd Maintenance Support Squadron at Robins Air Force Base, Ga., Oct. 8, 2009. The four Area Multi-axis Platforms, or AMP, can be seen suspended from overhead rails. An operator controls the three-dimensional movement of the AMP and uses a set of four laser-aimed-nozzles that shoot compressed air and media at painted surfaces. The process breaks up the paint and reveals the bare surface underneath it. This environmentally friendly system presents a low hazard to the operators and the environment, while making the depaint process faster. (U.S. Air Force photo/Lance Cheung)
