THERMAL SPRAY COATINGS

 Martin Equipment Rebuilders offers the latest technology in thermal spray coatings. We have the Stellite "Jet-Kote" H.V.O.F. System, the TAFA "JP-5000" H.V.O.F. System, the TAFA "high velocity" two-wire electric arc spray system, and the Norton Rokide ceramic coating system to fill all your coating needs. We have a super alloy or tungsten carbide solution to your erosion/corrosion or wear problems. 

WHAT IS THERMAL SPRAYING

Thermal spraying is a process in which metallic and non-metallic materials are deposited in a molten or semi-molten form on a prepared substrate imparting properties that the substrate would not otherwise possess. Since many metals, alloy, carbides, ceramics and combinations can be applied in the process, its potential is almost limitless. Using a thermal spraying gun the material is melted by electric arc or combustible gas, then kinetic energy or a compressed gas stream atomizes the material and carries it to the substrate. As the particles strike the surface they flatten, adhere and conform to the irregularities of the surface. Upon impact with the substrate these flattened particles cool and build-up to form a coating.

WHAT ARE ITS USES

Manufacturers can improve part performance and reduce the associated costs by
applying coatings that will pro-long the part life, using less expensive base materials. Parts may also be enhanced with unique traits using thermal spraying.
Worn, corroded, damaged and obsolete parts, which would otherwise be scrapped, can be reclaimed using thermal spraying. The part can be brought back to O.E.M. specifications again and again yielding considerable savings over time. Though very high temperatures are necessary to melt the material prior to spraying, the part being coated is actually subjected to very little heat - less than 300 degrees F. This allows the use of many different substrates.

WHAT INDUSTRIES USE IT

Virtually any industry can benefit from the advantages of thermal spraying.
But the industries we serve on an ongoing basis and the application they most
commonly require are as follows: Mining - Power Generating - Oil & Gas Refining -
Chemical - Pulp & Paper industry.

Pumps - Blowers - Fans - Compressors - Turbine and Generator Shafts - Centrifuges - Pistons - Plungers - Sleeves - Valves - Plugs - Seats - Cages
