Cold metal spray for repairing metal parts

Repair without thermal stress

A worn shaft, damaged bearing seat or corrosion damage can quickly lead to unexpected costs and unplanned downtime. Conventional repair techniques such as welding or thermal spraying can often provide a solution, but they also have their limitations. The required heat input may cause deformation, residual stress, oxidation or unwanted changes in material properties. This is especially problematic for precision components, thin-walled structures or hard-to-reach parts.

Cold metal spray is increasingly gaining attention as an alternative repair technology. In this process, metallic particles are applied to the substrate at high velocity and low temperature, creating a strong bond without significant heat input. As a result, deformation and material degradation can largely be avoided.

During this webinar, you will discover how cold metal spray works, when it is technically and economically relevant, and which applications are already being successfully implemented today in maintenance and field repair environments.
