HVOF Supersonic Flame Process


HVOF Supersonic Flame Process

 

Supersonic Flame Spraying: Oxygen and aviation kerosene are combusted in a high-pressure combustion chamber via a premixing system. The flame jet generated during combustion, combined with high-pressure air passing through a Laval nozzle, produces a high-temperature, high-velocity flame stream. This flame stream heats metal-ceramic powders to a semi-molten state and propels the partially molten powder onto the substrate surface at a velocity of 2000 m/s, thereby forming a high-quality, wear-resistant coating with excellent bonding strength and density.

The primary coating material used in supersonic flame spraying is WC-Co metal ceramic. The bonding strength and density of supersonic flame-sprayed coatings are higher than those of arc-sprayed coatings. Consequently, the resulting coatings exhibit superior wear resistance. Moreover, since the workpiece temperature during spraying remains below 20°C, no thermal distortion occurs in the workpiece.

The primary coatings used in supersonic flame spraying include tungsten carbide coatings, nickel-chromium-chromium carbide coatings, cobalt-based alloy coatings, nickel-chromium-tungsten carbide coatings, and various cemented carbide coatings.

The hardness of supersonic flame spraying is controllable within the range of HRC 50–70.

Bond strength between the supersonic flame-sprayed coating and the substrate: ≥80 MPa.

High-temperature resistance of supersonic flame-sprayed coatings: controllable between 600℃ and 1200℃.

Wear resistance of supersonic flame-sprayed coatings: It is 10 to 40 times that of 20# steel.

Characteristics of supersonic flame: The spraying temperature is below 120℃, and no thermal deformation occurs.
