 Abstract:
The trend in thermal spraying is more and more towards a globally uniform level of high-grade spray coatings. It is therefore extremely important that auxiliaries such as spray materials or industrial gases undergo precise examination in order to exactly define their influence.
A further point is of particular significance in today?s business world. With ever-increasing raw material prices, it is absolutely essential that spray processes are optimized to the maximum. This is not only made possible by selecting the right system, but also by choosing the right gas and gas mixture.
The optimization of costs, extended lifetime of systems and tailoring of coating properties to suit specific applications are just some of these influencing variables. Gas producers test countless facilities and thermal spray systems in their own laboratories and are therefore always in a position to provide the right solution for existing and new applications.
