Thermal spray

Plasma Spray Nozzles & Copper Components.

Thermal-spray hardware experiences elevated temperatures, cycling and erosion, so material selection must consider more than room-temperature conductivity.

The challenge

Thermal fatigue, loss of shape and erosion under repeated process cycles.

What to review

Plasma/process gas and nozzle geometry
Cooling rate and operating cycle
Erosion mechanism and dimensional acceptance
