This multi-station, robotic system applies plasma sprayed coatings on piston rings. This system utilizes Progressives 100HE High Enthalpy Plasma torch for improved coating quality and deposit efficiency. Stacks of rings are loaded into the machine at an outside station. A 4-stop dial table has integral spray hoods, cooling, and spindles. Parts advance to first a bond coat station, then a top coat station, then a cooling station. The coating process is completely controlled inside the acoustical enclosure.
Standard
Robots for positioning of plasma guns
Rugged and precise indexing table
Cooling air at each station
PC operator interface
Robot programs via part parameters in recipe
100HE High Enthalpy Plasma Torch
Closed loop controls of 2 plasma processes
Integrated power supplies, chiller, and powder feeders
Optional
