Arc Spray / Flame spray Equipment Suppliers
Hi all, I am new on the forum and joined to learn more about surface finishing.
Currently I am looking to buy an arc spray unit for zinc, aluminuim, and other wires which come between 1.6mm and 2.5mm
So far I have seen systems from Metallization UK, and from Oerlikon Metco, but the latter one is only suitable for 2.3 and 2.5 wires and only Zinc, Aluminuim, a combination of both or with Magnesium.
What would you suggest? and are there more suppliers you would recommend?
Another subject I would like to discuss is ceramic coatings applied by flame. I am looking for a Zirconuim oxide coatings, which from my knowledge is the best for thermal insulation. Obviously, applied by plasma would be the ideal scenario but the cost would not be viable.
Does anyone has experience with applying such powders? I would be happy to discuss further regarding equipment options (maybe second hand) and the performance of the coating, maybe even different suppliers who sell such powder. What I know is that Oerlikon also supply both equipment and powder but equipment with separate powder feeder would cost up to €23K.
Thanks in advance
