Thermal Spray Coatings

ATCAM is one of a select few companies in the Midwest to offer a line of thermal spray coatings for enhancing or restoring high maintenance parts.

Benefits of Thermal Spray

The thermal spray coating process can be used to reclaim mis machined parts and extend the life of a wide variety of parts.

Many companies find the wear resistance advantages of thermal coatings like stainless steel, aluminum, carbon steel, tungsten carbide and ceramic beneficial for protecting their products against abrasion, corrosion and erosion. The ability to rebuild parts in less time and cost, than ordering a new part has proven even more valuable. This is particularly true in cases where replacement parts for older machinery are no longer available. Ability to enhance existing performance with customization of coating powders and wire.

Repair Using Thermal Spray Coatings

• Bearing surfaces
• Seal areas
• Paper roll restoration
• Paper roll surface conditioning
• Food handling equipment

Broken? Give ATCAM a chance to fix it!

This unique process typically will not alter or change the existing characteristics of a part which may occur with other welding processes up to and including distortion.

The application of hard, wear resistant coatings can extend the life of parts and make them resistant to fretting, friction, galling, erosion, corrosion or abrasion.

These coatings can be applied to new products to enhance their overall performance during production. To address specific customer challenges, custom wires with unique chemistries can be manufactured.

ATCAM’s large lathe capabilities allow rolls up to 60 inches in diameter and 60 feet long to be machined or coated.

The ability to rebuild worn parts using arc spray technology is an ATCAM specialty.

Whatever your company’s individual coating requirements might be, you can rely on ATCAM to provide the technical expertise, application quality, fast turnaround and cost-efficiency.
