Electric arc wire

Electric arc spraying is a thermal spraying process that uses an electric arc between two consumable electrodes of the surfacing materials as the heat source. This is a cost effective, high throughput coating process typically used for thick build-up and surface restoration applications. It can also produce excellent metallic coatings such as Molybdenum, Aluminum, NiAl, and Zinc used for wear and corrosion protection.

Arc wire can be used to produce a wide range of surface finishes. The process uses a positive and negative charged dual-wire system and then uses high-pressure air or gas to atomize and propel the coating to the work surface.

We provide comprehensive, cost-effective electric arc wire spraying capabilities that allow our customers to improve their operational efficiencies and reduce maintenance costs through our surface technology services.
