Coating Engineering

Typically, an engineering coating is one that modifies the surface characteristics of the object being sprayed. This might be a coating that serves as a heat barrier or lowers an item's rate of wear. Engineering coatings are frequently used to recover/repair worn out products by restoring their physical proportions.

Engineering coatings are frequently used to recover/repair worn out products by restoring their physical proportions. Thermal spray or laser clad coating can be applied to a standard engine. can be used to resurface clutch pressure plates, create hard-wearing valve seats, prevent cylinder bore wear, coat piston rings to make them more durable, repair camshaft bearings, and repair crankshafts. It can also be used to resurface cylinder heads and cylinder bores. Coating the worn regions on the selection forks for gearbox synchro rings is another traditional use. Train points are metal sprayed coated in the railroad business, and old axle bearings and wheel mounts are also salvaged. The use of ceramic thermal barrier coatings by spraying them on exhaust manifolds is becoming more and more popular. Thermal barrier coatings assist to keep exhaust warmth contained in the exhaust system and, as a result, lower engine bay temperatures, which can significantly improve performance, especially in high-performance and motorsport applications.
