The needs of the aviation industry require high precision and quality at every stage of production. Our company has developed a unique painting and drying booth that meets the highest standards of the aviation industry. This booth was created for the Antonov plant and is successfully used for painting wings and other large parts of aircraft.

History

In 2006, our company, the factory “Techservis VEKO and Partner GmbH,” was tasked with developing a specialized booth for curing and drying for the aviation industry. The order was made to maintain aircraft wings and other critical assemblies produced at the Antonov plant. The project required exceptionally precise technical solutions to achieve high standards in aviation manufacturing.

High requirements for painting work

Increased customer demands were due to the need to ensure uniform airflow throughout the booth and a maximally stable temperature in all parts of the booth for curing. These parameters must be maintained with consistent stability for 20-30 hours of its operation. The challenge lies in keeping airflow and temperature stable. This, in turn, requires a responsible approach to work, high-quality components, and carefully designed assemblies with thorough control after development and assembly.
All operational parameters of the equipment are recorded and logged in real-time by a six-channel recorder and archived for many years of aircraft operation. All the requirements set by the customer have been met. The aircraft painting and drying booth operates in standard mode and continues to this day.

The curing booth, designed for curing seals and drying the protective coating of the AN-148, AN-158, AN-178 aircraft wings, was developed and manufactured in accordance with the technical specification, wishes, and needs of our production facility. Over 14 years of operation, only routine maintenance and regular repairs have been performed.V.F. Semencov, Vice President (Infrastructure) DP «Antonov»

Uniqueness of the booth

  • Control system: A six-channel recorder records all parameters in real-time and provides precise control over the painting process.
  • Temperature regulation precision: Stable temperature is maintained throughout the booth area, ensuring uniform polymerization of aircraft components.
  • Materials used: The booth is made from high-quality materials that prevent temperature fluctuations and ensure long-lasting construction.

Technical specifications

Aircraft painting and drying booth (for curing polymer coatings), with internal dimensions of 12x5x3 meters, featuring strict temperature-time regimes, air heating via an electric heat exchanger.

  • Air heating system with two electric heat exchangers, each with a capacity of 70 kW.
  • Stable temperature throughout the booth area for extended periods. The temperature regime is maintained at 70°C ± 5°C.
  • Product dwell time in the booth: 16-18 hours.
  • Booth operating modes are controlled by an eight-channel recorder that records parameters on a paper medium in real-time.
  • Dry air filtration system for dust and paint particle removal.

Project outcome

All customer requirements were successfully met. The aircraft painting and drying booth continues to operate successfully at the Antonov plant. Its operation fully meets the requirements of the aviation industry and ensures high-quality painting and curing of critical aviation components.

Spray booth Archives - Page 11 of 11 - Techservice WEKO LLC

In 2006, Bona Dea LLC approached TWEKO with a request to develop a paint booth for applying and drying coatings on interior doors and furniture. The TWEKO team designed and manufactured a paint booth with dry filtration and electric heating, tailored to the client’s production conditions. The project was completed in November 2006, ensuring high-quality coatings and operational efficiency.

About the Client

Bona Dea LLC is a furniture factory based in Kyiv, Ukraine. The company specializes in manufacturing interior doors from solid wood with various finishes (patination, oil coating, and painting with high-quality coatings), as well as kitchen furniture from solid wood and MDF, wall and ceiling panels, sliding wardrobes, cabinets, dressers, and facades.

Project Objectives

The project aimed to create a paint booth for high-quality application and drying of coatings on interior doors and furniture. Key requirements included:

  • A paint booth with dry filtration to ensure clean working conditions.
  • Electric heating for painting and drying modes.
  • Installation on a flat floor without underground air ducts.
  • Internal booth dimensions of 6×4×2.5 m to accommodate various product sizes.

TWEKO’s Solution

TWEKO developed a customized solution, including:

  • Paint booth with dry filtration. The 6×4×2.5 m booth features an extraction cabinet in the side wall. A two-stage filtration system with a ceiling plenum and G5 fine filters ensures air purification from fine dust particles. The airtight cabin with positive pressure prevents contamination. The 1.5 mm thick galvanized steel body meets safety standards.
  • Thermal ventilation cabinet with electric heat exchanger. Equipped with TWEKO’s proprietary thick-film metal-ceramic heaters, providing temperatures of 16–24°C in painting mode and 16–60°C in drying mode. Airflow is 10,000 m³/h. Double sliding doors (2×2.5 m) ensure convenient access.

The booth is installed on a flat floor without underground ducts, with side air extraction through the cabinet. The system includes LED lighting (4×18 W) and temperature and pressure control.

Project Implementation

The request from Bona Dea LLC was received in early 2006. TWEKO prepared a commercial proposal based on the booth size and facility conditions. After on-site measurements (Kurenivskyi Lane 17, Kyiv), the feasibility of installation without underground ducts was confirmed. Manufacturing of components, including the body, extraction cabinet, and thermal ventilation system, was completed in autumn 2006. Installation and commissioning were finalized in November 2006, enabling timely operation.

Results for the Client

  • Flawless coating quality due to the ceiling plenum with G5 filters and airtight cabin.
  • Efficient coating application and drying with the adjustable-temperature electric heat exchanger.
  • Operational convenience thanks to double sliding doors and adaptation to the facility.
  • Improved working conditions due to effective ventilation and positive pressure.
