Application
Plasma spraying is one of many thermal spray processes that we integrate into automated systems. Plasma spraying melts or plasticizes powdered metal into its fourth state of matter known as plasma. Once the plasma plume has been created, a controlled blast imparts the plasticized material onto its targeted surface to protect parts from heat, extreme temperature fluctuations, high wear areas, surface protection, dielectrics, and to enhance or hinder conductivity.
