The Metco HSS Plus is an advanced wire combustion thermal spray system designed to deliver high-quality coatings with superior operational efficiency.

 

Its core technology is based on optimizing the airflow and gas mixture to achieve extremely fine and concentrated particle atomization. This process produces a dense coating structure with minimal porosity and a smoother surface finish, reducing the need for post-machining operations.

 

It is a versatile system, ideal for both corrosion protection and dimensional restoration of worn components, while maintaining precise thermal control to prevent substrate distortion.

 

 

Features:

 

• Soft Spray Technology: Achieves extremely fine particle atomization, resulting in denser, more uniform coatings with improved adhesion.
• High Deposition Efficiency: Minimizes material waste (overspray) through a highly concentrated spray pattern.
• Material Versatility: Capable of spraying a wide range of wires, including zinc, aluminum, stainless steels, bronzes, and other metallic alloys.
• Ergonomic and Modular Design: Its lightweight structure allows for comfortable manual operation while also being easily integrated into automated robotic systems.
• Superior Surface Finish: Produces smoother surfaces than conventional combustion spray systems, saving time and costs in final grinding operations.
• Simplified Maintenance: Designed for quick nozzle and wear-component replacement without the need for complex tools.
• Thermal Management: Allows the application of thick coatings while maintaining controlled part temperature, protecting the mechanical properties of the substrate.
