THE AVAILABILITY OF A NEWLY DEVELOPED HIGH-GLOSS, LOW-TEMPERATURE, E-COAT PAINT MATERIAL PERMITTED JOHN DEERE HARVESTER TO RETHINK HOW IT PAINTS ITS PRODUCT. THE PAINT OPERATION IS NOW ACCOMPLISHED IN THE LATTER PHASES OF THE ASSEMBLY PROCESS AS COMPARED TO PAINTING PARTS AND/OR SMALL SUBASSEMBLIES. TO PROVIDE A PRODUCT WITH MUCH IMPROVED PAINT DURABILITY AND WEATHERABILITY, THE MOST VISIBLE, EXPOSED EXTERIOR SURFACES ARE ROBOTICALLY SPRAYED WITH A PLURAL COMPONENT URETHANE PAINT. THIS PAPER PRESENTS THE TECHNICAL AND OPERATIONAL CONSIDERATIONS OF PAINTING LARGE COMPLEX ASSEMBLIES AND THE RESULTANT BENEFITS.
