Thermal Spray Coatings

Metallizing Equipment Co offers a range of Thermal Spray Coatings as value addition for automotive components. The onset of liberalisation in 1991 changed the whole scenario of Indian corporates and their workings. Manufacturing firms, which earlier, were hunting for only customers, started hunt for quality improvements and new process developments in their products. Entry of global players with advanced technologies created a bottleneck competition, which subsequently created a high pressure on manufacturing firms to improve the quality of their products. The automotive industry has gone through most vigorous developments under a concrete competition scenario. Demands in automotive industries are taking a up surge day by day, so all the manufacturers needed to offer high quality products with cost limitations. Since the automotive parts are to be mass produced, it is necessary that the stable supply of large quantity of materials, uniform quality, low cost/high performance are ensured. Some major problems which industry must cope with are – reduction of fuel consumption, weight reduction of component parts and reduction of friction of sliding parts. Being critical kinetic components automotive parts are always under the risks of destructive factors like corrosion, wear, abrasion and erosion. With the availability of various processes, thermal spray coating has shown a significant lowest cost/performance ratio. Parts like shifter fork, crankshaft, valve, piston, piston ring, fuel injection nozzle, synchronisation ring, etc., are treated by this coating process. Shifter forks while working face problems of sliding wears, Plasma sprayed dense self lubricating and wear resistance coating improves its performance and life. This coating and its processes offer automotive manufacturers with opportunity of creating a Point of Difference (POP) in their components. The company offers high-tech plasma, HVOF, arc and flame spray systems, or undertakes job work for plasma spray on specialised components.
