Research on automatic high velocity arc spraying technique and metastable coating materials

Abstract

Into the 21st century, remanufacturing engineering has been accepted by more and more people in China. Remanufacturing is an industrial maintenance technology for worn or waste electro-mechanical products using advanced technology, which means the high-level stage for the maintenance and surface engineering. In this paper, a new automotive high velocity arc spraying system was introduced. And three kinds of advanced amorphous and nanocrystalline metastable coatings were developed, including Fe, Ni and Al-based amorphous and nanocrystalline composite coatings. Their research development and applications were introduced. And the development trends of high velocity arc spraying system and advanced metastable surface protective coating materials on the remanufacturing engineering were indicated. © 2013 Shanghai University and Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
