Summary:

In the demanding aircraft OEM and repair environment, requirements for success in the area of surface enhancement can be identified as:Plasma spraying with automated equipment meets both of these challenging requirements. It also differs from other thermal spray processes such as conventional and high velocity flame spraying offering significant advantages and benefits for the manufacturer of coatings:The plasma spray process is automated whilst remaining operator friendly and precisely controlled within a wide range of parameters thus producing consistent, reproducible coatings of the highest quality. This success is based on thoroughly tried and tested components and hence no start-up problems. Therefore, systems are reliable and cost-effective with minimal down-time and easy to maintain with low repair and maintenance costs
