A coating application system may include a pair of towers movable along a respective pair of floor tracks. A crossbeam may extend between the pair of towers. The cross beam may have opposing beam ends. A universal joint may couple each beam end to a tower to allow the crossbeam to rotate about a vertical axis and about a horizontal axis. A robotic device may be mounted to the crossbeam. The robotic device may include an end effector for performing one or more operations on an aircraft exterior surface.
