The Aviation Cold Spray Repair Process
Many repair processes have been developed over the years for damaged parts, but these may induce undesirable thermal stresses resulting in premature failure. Over the past several decades, experts from around the world have been looking for alternatives. One innovative solution is a process called Cold Spray – an additive manufacturing process that uses metal powders accelerated to supersonic speeds to restore the original substrate without inducing thermal stresses. This process is being widely used in the automotive, industrial, and industrial marketplaces. It is ideal for aerospace materials like aluminum, magnesium, titanium, and other alloys.
Benefits of Cold Spray Repair:
Significant Total Cost Savings
Repair vs. replacement saves both inventory and total sustainment costs.
Repair Time Reduction
Repair lead times substantially less than lead times for new components.
Improved Production Yield
Repair defects instead of scrapping to salvage newly manufactured parts.
Cold Spray Repair is Ideal for Many Situations:
- Repairing corrosion damage
- Recovering mis-machined parts
- Improving wear resistance
- Restoring worn/damaged features
- Preventing corrosion damage
- Surface build-up
- Providing conducive properties
- Improving dielectric properties
- Thermal management coatings
