Thermal Spraying for High-quality, High-function Films

Multi-functional Coatings Applied through Cold Working

Thermal spraying is a unique cold working process for applying a variety of industrial materials as surface coatings. Major characteristics provided by thermal spraying include:

1. Anti-abrasion,
2. Heat resistance and insulation,
3. Rust and corrosion resistance for steel, and
4. Conductivity for electrical parts.

Today, thermal spraying is used as an alternative to chrome plating in Europe and the US as a greener technology. It is also growing in popularity in a number of industries as a way to save resources and provide longer life by offering surface protection during manufacturing and repairs.
