| Thermal
Spraying |
| Large
surface areas as well as small parts are readily resurfaced and
returned to operation promptly through application of our company's
thermal spraying system. |
|
Spray
coating is a cost-effective alternative in the reconditioning
of existing components especially those that are exposed to severe
weather and chemically corrosive environments.
|
| Thermal
spraying can be performed utilizing powders or solid wires with
heat being produced from an electric power source (arc) or combustible
gases (oxy / fuel). |
| Arc
spraying offers rapid application of corrosion and wear-resistant
coatings in a thermo-mechanical bonding process. Droplets of molten
material are propelled against a workpiece. They flatten, coalesce
and cool into a hard, durable matrix, which may be as much as a
half inch thick for rebuilding purposes. |

| Time
and Cost Benefits |
| Among
the several benefits of thermal spraying are: the prevention of
pickup and galling; superior gripping characteristics; major reductions
in fabrication time and replacement costs. |
| A
typical application is roughing up bar mill gripper rolls used for
hot slab transfer in a steel plant. |
