Cold Spray Background
In 2000, Cold Spray activities began in cooperation between
Linde Group, ASB Industries Inc., CRP Automationstechnik AG and
Germany's University of the Federal Armed Forces. In a relatively
short time, the newly founded company CGT Cold Gas Technology GmbH
developed and launched proven production systems for Cold Spray. At
the end of 2002, the first industrial user produced automotive
components allowing benefits of this promising process by applying
pure copper coatings to aluminum heat sinks.
The latest developments in Cold Spray have led to process
optimization using standard powders and high deposition efficiency.
With KINETIKS 4000, the Cold Spray process can compete commercially
with any other coating technology on the market. Using
cost-effective nitrogen as the process gas, mechanical coating
properties - which compare to those of solid materials - can be
achieved.
Cold Spray will continue to reveal new coating possibilities,
including metallic materials and metal, ceramics or plastic
composites. More than twenty new applications - which were never
before considered within the context of Thermal Spraying - have
already been implemented.
