Metal spraying technology
Metal spraying method is a collective term for the various thermal spraying methods. Metal spraying is based on the interaction between kinetic and thermal energy.
Metal spraying was developed in the early 20th century and originally included spraying of molten metal particles. Thermal spraying made it possible to apply metal on correctly prepared elements, without reaching the heat input necessary with welding or melting.
Increased productivity and performance of technical equipment and machines increase the requirements of segments or components. Therefore the highly burdened surfaces at risk are protected or changed in such a way by thermal spraying/flame spraying that they withstand high strain.
This must be considered in the supply and choice of the coating substances to limit consequential costs through possible machine breakdown.
