The defence industry was amongst one of the first to take advantage of thermal spray coatings and the benefits it offers.
Nowadays, many companies in this sector rely on thermal spray coatings as an essential step to meeting the industry’s high performance and quality requirements.
Typical application uses thermal spray technology to create defence coatings for several airframe and propulsion applications, including:
- Wing structures
- Landing gear (axles, pins, bearings)
- Actuation systems (flaps, thrust reversing, pumps)
- Transmission (gears, shafts)
- Engines (combustion liners, discharge nozzles, blades, compressor casings, turbine)
- Weaponry (Missiles)
- Tank chassis
