Aerospace Coatings Using High Pressure Cold Spray

Magnesium Gear Box Repaired Due to Fretting Wear

Process Screen for Liquid Feed HVOF Thermal Spray

The use of highly tested thermal spray coatings results in greater fuel efficiencies, higher speeds and reduced maintenance cycles in aircraft engines. Engine manufacturers and Maintenance and Repair Operations (MRO Stations) follow specific guidelines and quality standards that specify standards integrated into the entire engine systems. Each part of the engine have specifications that reduce fretting, abrasive wear, corrosion and high temperature conditions.
