HVOF Gun HVOF stands for High-Velocity Oxy-Fuel . In this high-velocity oxy-fuel is supplied by the gun. HVOF Gun required a very high velocity for the coating process. This high velocity is used to propel the particles at supersonic speed before impact onto the substrate. In the spray process high combustion pressure and high velocity of gas and particle resulting in high coating quality. Two types of Hvof on basics fuel Liquid Fuel Gas-Fuel HVOF Gun Application High density. Typical coatings have less than 2% porosity and some coatings as low as 0.5% porosity. High bond strength. For example, typical carbide coatings sprayed with HVOF exhibit bond strengths in excess of 69 MPA (10,000 psi). Other coating materials sprayed with HVOF have significantly higher bond strengths than the same materials applied using other atmospheric thermal spray processes such as air plasma spray. Optimum Hardness. A 12% tungsten carbide / cobalt coating will hav...
