What is metallizing?

Metallizing is a technique that helps improve your equipment’s service life by enhancing its resistance to wear or corrosion. Metallizing is done through thermal spray welding for metal coating or steel coating, by HVOF spray welding or plasma spraying. It adds a fine layer of metals to protect equipment without affecting its performance.

Energy

In the energy sector, metallizing ensures that equipment is better protected from erosion, cavitation, abrasion, and corrosion.

  • Thrust bearing
  • Turbine Guide bearing
  • Turbine shafts
Industrial

The addition of a thermal spray metal coating to industrial equipment improves resistance to corrosion, heat, and wear, and can also have hygienic properties.

  • Thrust bearing
  • Mixer
  • Centrifuge
Mining

In the mining sector where machinery is put to the test, metallizing ensures better wear resistance on various equipment parts.

  • Crushing hammers
  • Mineral transport conveyor
  • Mixers
Paper mills

The dusts emitted in the pulp and paper sector are highly damaging to equipment. Thermal spray metallizing adds a layer of much-needed protection to equipment of all kinds.

  • Auger screw
  • Pumps
  • Valves
Steel

Metallizing equipment in the steel industry helps improve service life in a context where parts are often in contact with high-temperature abrasive particles.

  • Exhaust gas hood
  • Oven rack
  • Combustion chamber walls (firebox wall)
Transport

Our steel metallizing methods help protect parts from corrosion due to friction. Thermal spraying also adds a layer of protection to heating units.

  • Footstool (footboard) and riser
  • Suspension
  • Thermal barrier
Forestry

To protect wood processing equipment, we use metallizing techniques, especially thermal spraying, HVAF, and HVOF, in order to improve wear resistance.
