Thermal Spraying - Part 1 - Introduction to Arc and Spray - technology and guns

Today I had a chance to get an interview with Peter Ambuehl - a person who became part of Oerlikon Metco DNA and who has agreed to give me an overview of the Thermal Spraying (TS) processes.
In the first part of our interview, we talk about Arc & Flame Thermal Spray Technologies, looking at the history of processes, equipment and application examples.
Peter, one of the dinosaurs of TS technology, as he calls himself, is already over 30 years working for Metco. Nowadays, he gives high-class training for customers of Oerlikon. You can learn more about his work at his LinkedIn channel:

02:00 How does TS technology work
02:40 Combustion Wire Flame Technology
04:55 Combustion Powder Flame Technology
7:20 Arc Spray Technology
10:00 Why Thermal Spray is so popular

We are using arc spray and HVOF spray. The video is very good.

I first used Metco 4e gun, also started my education on 2 Mx plasma the 3mc unit, now I’m working with 9mc plasma with the same 3mb gun I worked wit40 years ago

Crazy thing is I’ve been Metallizing and started out on Metco 12E flame spray in 1996 now I’m running JP8000 and have run everything in between including Metco 5p powder and Tafa, praxair, Metco SmartArc twin wire arc, and many HVOF systems starting with JetKote, Diamond jet, JP5000 and now JP8000. Nice video

Thank you, my friend! I hope all well on your side!

[@tonydunn3985]

I used Rokied flame spray z- rods calsium base zirconium. When plasma technology was not yet well known. Mogul rokied gun. Missle cones.

This is good job

If you want to best life component, you needs heat threatment and coating Technologies

[@TechnologieswithArkadi]

👍

[@tonydunn3985]

Arc gun is inexpensive application of flame spray aluminum, but flame spray using Metco wire is very high Deposit efficiency and control

[@SushilKumar-tj5iy]

What is about chrome plating or Nickel plating

[@SushilKumar-tj5iy]

We need full anslysis on HVOF vs Plasma gas spray

[@SushilKumar-tj5iy]

HVAF

we were spraying aluminum in russia i was very interested with this technology but tool was expensive and factory was not allowing it to disassembly.
