A Brief Overview Of The Tungsten Coatings Process

The tungsten coating process involves honing and pre-matching flat-tipped masonry parts for final polish. Your parts are first honed with standard aluminium oxide grit and then built up with the tungsten coating to which they will be ground. This is a critical stage of the tungsten coating process and should not be left until the last minute. This will ensure that all parts fit together properly and are properly sealed to prevent corrosion.

Once the tungsten coating has been built up, it is sprayed with the hot spray coating and allowed to dry, hardening to a solid form. This hardening provides a very high R-value, which is highly beneficial in many applications. Some common tungsten coating applications include:

Laser Polishing Tungsten Coating The hot-spray processing parameter is used when the tungsten coating is quenched monomer. In this case, the monomer is left undisturbed while the laser power is applied to the material. When the laser power is reduced, the monomer is allowed to recover and the surface is honed and polished to produce a flat and smooth surface. The laser polishing process achieves a high G-rating and sharp edge. The remote component returns to its original form after the surface has been restored to its original texture and condition.

High-Performance Tungsten Coating There are four basic stages involved in the tungsten coating application process. The first stage is the preparation and the quenching of the material. This is done by applying low pressure plasma or argon gas in a coated container. The plasma or argon gas provides an ionic bonding with the tungsten atoms. This provides a superior level of attachment to the metal surface.

The second stage of the application is the blasting of the material with a fine-particle gun at very high velocities. During this process, low-pressure argon gas with a high temperature is again sprayed onto the tungsten carbide powder in the optimized thickness with a high-speed plasma cutter. This high-speed cutting process results in a fine mist droplet which is then quickly deposited on the surface of the other layers. The coating is cured by means of a high-pressure low-pressure plasma that is directed against the carbide and tungsten carbides with an optimized thickness. The entire procedure can be completed in less than one hour.

The final step is the mechanical transformation in which heat-treating is performed after the applications are completed. During this step, the mechanical bonds are established and the previously molten salt-bath melts into the desired flat sheet. The heat-treating is also effective for bonding the flat sheets to the metal using high-quality thermoset polyimide, an extremely hard, smooth, wear-resistant, white coating. The overall process generates a thin, uniform layer of high-quality alloy that is applied to an existing product or a new product design. Tungsten Carbide's unique moisture-resistant features allow manufacturers and customers to achieve durable, long-lasting products.
