Thermal Spray Coatings - Applications

	Application possibilities:
	• Pump and motor parts
	• Shafts, bearings and seals
	• Machine and tool parts
	• Measuring tools and fixtures
	• Valves and pistons
	• Guides, rollers and rails

 

Bearings & seals
Thermal spray coatings have a wear resistance comparable to that of cemented carbides in the case of normal bearing applications. In cases where requirements are extreme, such as in high speed motors, special solutions are available. For example, it can be of great benefit to use SiC (silicon carbide) as the counterpart in order to achieve a very robust bearing system with good wear and corrosion properties.

Machine parts
Thermal spray coatings based on, for example, tungsten carbides can be applied to machine parts which are exposed to wear. It is possible to increase the service life of the parts considerably and thereby significantly reduce overall operating costs. It is typically profitable to use coatings for medium-volume production and large batches of components.

 

Development cooperation
Many years of working with the development and implementation of customised solutions means that we possess unique knowledge and experience in terms of designing and optimising solutions in which there are extreme requirements with regard to wear and corrosion resistance. We naturally share our experience and know-how to create optimum solutions in cooperation with our customers.
