ARC SPRAY
The Arc Spray process uses two metallic wires fed through a torch, one positively, the other negatively charged. Continuously the wires are fed, then arc when they meet at the tip of the torch. Simultaneously compressed air atomizes and projects the material onto a substrate. This process deposits material a a high rate and provides a wide range of applications such as wear and corrosion resistant coatings. It can also apply machinable stock to substrates in need of repair and reclamation.
