Pilatus Revolutionizes Aircraft Painting with Advanced Laser Technology

Pilatus has introduced a new laser technology for aircraft painting, which streamlines the process and reduces errors. The technology, introduced in July 2020, uses a laser projector to project 3D colour schemes onto the aircraft surface. The results are outstanding, and the process is more efficient and professional. This technology has been used for PC-24s since July 2020 and will be expanded to PC-12s in the near future.
