Thermal spray coating

Peak performance is achieved by improving surfaces

In modern industry, the peak performance of components and equipment is achieved by improving surfaces. Applying specific engineering materials to create a high-performance surface layer has replaced the costly and often unfeasible construction of structural or power-transmission components. At Metaliza we understood this concept from the very start, offering standardized or innovative solutions by applying materials through spray projection with state-of-the-art robotic equipment.

The result

Surfaces that transform every part

Our processes

Four thermal spray technologies

Plasma Spray

Plasma Spray

Plasma projection for high-performance ceramics and super-alloys: thermal barrier coatings (TBC) and extreme-hardness layers.

HVOF

HVOF

High Velocity Oxy-Fuel: dense carbide layers (WC-Co-Cr) with very high adhesion and low porosity, ideal for wear and erosion.

Arc Spray

Arc Spray

High-throughput electric arc for metallic coatings: corrosion protection and dimensional restoration of large surfaces.

Flame Spray

Flame Spray

Flame projection, versatile and cost-effective, for dimensional recovery and functional layers across a wide range of materials.

Robot-handled

More precision, less overspray, full repeatability

Robotizing spray and welding processes ensures the supply of single parts or serial production with controlled, repeatable and reliable parameters. We guarantee the lowest possible material consumption, controlling layer thickness to the hundredth —whether machined and/or post-processed, or As-Sprayed— especially in Plasma and HVOF coatings.

Reverse-engineering complex geometries

In-house reverse engineering

Reverse-engineering complex geometries

Dimensional, material and conceptual reverse engineering. We reverse-engineer complex geometries through 3D measurement, portable XRF for non-destructive, non-invasive material identification, and above all redesigns drawing on more than 50 years of know-how in advanced technology.

  • 3D measurement of complex geometries
  • Portable XRF: non-destructive material identification
  • Conceptual and dimensional redesign
