Nouvelle génération de machine de revêtement et futures applications dans les industries de l’aéronautique et des turbines à gaz
Le thermal spray est une technologie de revêtement qui développe des épaisseurs de 50 µm à quelques millimètres. Les particules sont projetées à grande vitesse sur une surface et solidifient immédiatement. Oerlikon nous fait état d’une nouvelle génération de machine de revêtements et de ses futures applications.
Figure 1: The SurfaceOne platform is build up by the process module (top image) and the coating module (bottom image).
Figure 2: Evolution of turbine entry temperature and maximum substrate temperature. The gap increased due to TBCs and airfoil cooling. [1]
Figure 3: A microscopic image of a typical porous TBC. The shown coating has a low thermal conductivity of 0.85 W/mK but a comparably low erosion resistance of 4.4 s/mil.

Figure 6: Example of a dense TBC with high density of vertical cracks. The coating was produced from Metco 204NS-G with the SinplexPr spray torch.
