The flame spray gun is the oldest of the thermal spraying processes, characterized by low capital investment, high efficiency and deposition rates, and relative ease of operation and cost of equipment maintenance. The flame spray uses combustible gas as a heat source to melt the coating material. A wide variety of materials can be deposited in rod, wire, or powder form as coatings using this process Flame spray guns and the vast majority of components are sprayed manually.
This process has many advantages such as low cost, easy to operate, easy to design, and dust and fume levels are low. It is widely used for corrosion protection of the structure and machine parts (e.g. bridges, offshore platforms, LPG bottles). It is used where a cost-effective thermal spray coating is desired and lower quality can be tolerated. For corrosion protection of structures and machine components and reclamation wore shafts powder flame spray gun process is mainly used.
Flame Spray Gun Process
In this process in which, the natural material in the form of a single wire, cord or powder, is melted in an oxy-fuel gas flame. This molten material is atomized by a cone of compressed air and impelled towards the workpiece.
In the list of our most exclusive and finest quality services and products are also included these Plasma flame spray services (wire & powder). This service is so much useful in several types of industrial, automobile, and mechanical utilities as they provide excellent coating facilities while giving minimum heat input to the base metal. These Plasma flame spray services (wire, powder & rod) are proved to be very much helpful in corrosion control coatings (aluminum wire and zinc wire), Babbitt bearings, decorative coatings, EMI, and RFI shielding for defense, etc.
our company has applied its engineering superiority & vast knowledge of material technology to develop a complete line of It is for thermal spray gun applications. Our product line includes guns that impart wear-resistant coatings in metallic, ceramic, carbide & composite materials as well as complete integrated flame spray guns systems designed for manual or automatic applications.
Types Of Flame Spray Gun
