EuTronic® Arc Spray Wires

Product catalog summary
Overview
EuTronic® Arc Spray Wires are designed to extend the service life of critical components through a high-productivity thermal spraying process. This process uses twin arc wire spraying technology, which is safe and cost-effective, as it does not require flammable gases.

Functionality
The EuTronic® Arc process involves melting a pair of wires using an electric arc with temperatures between 5,000 - 6,000°C. Compressed gas atomizes the molten wire tips, propelling droplets towards the substrate at high velocities, forming a coating with high bond strength and low porosity. The process maintains substrate temperatures below 150°C, preventing metallurgical changes.

Applications
Primarily used for anti-corrosion coatings on large components, the process is suitable for electrically conductive materials, typically metals or cored wires. It is efficient for extensive areas due to low running costs and high spray rates.

Technical Data
  • Arc temperature: up to 6000°C
  • Particle velocity: 150 - 300 m/s
  • Deposition rate: 2.5 to 36 kg/h
  • Coating thickness: 0.1 to 20 mm
  • Coating density: 90 - 97%
  • Noise level: 100 - 120 dB(A)


Advantages
The arc spraying process offers high spray rates and low costs, with no need for flammable gases. It allows the use of two different wires to create new coatings.

Product Range
The EuTronic® Arc Spray Wire range includes various alloys, each tailored for specific applications, such as corrosion protection, wear resistance, and dimensional restoration. Examples include:
  • EuTronic® Arc 500: Ni-AI alloy for bond coats
  • EuTronic® Arc 502: Fe-Cr-Ti-Si-Mn alloy for high-temperature applications
  • EuTronic® Arc 520: Zn alloy for corrosion protection in urban environments


Production and Equipment
Castolin Eutectic manufactures specialist cored wires and has developed dedicated Arc Wire Spray equipment to optimize coating quality. The EuTronic® Arc Spray 4 system is highlighted for its reliability and ease of use.

Support and Services
Castolin Eutectic offers comprehensive services through CastoLab® for maintenance and repair, supported by the TeroLink® database with over 7,600 case studies. Training programs are available to enhance customer knowledge in wear technology and repair techniques.

Company Background
Founded in 1906, Castolin Eutectic has a rich history of innovation in welding and thermal spraying technologies, now part of the Messer World group, offering a wide range of products and services globally.

EuTronic® Arc wire EuTronic® Arc PROCESS Function EuTronic® Arc is the highest productivity thermal spraying process. EuTronic® Arc is an Arc Spray Process using a pair of wires which are melted by an electric arc. The arc has a temperature of 5 000 - 6 000°C that melts the wires continuously. Compressed gas - most often air - is used to atomise the molten wire tips and to propel the droplets towards the substrate at velocities exceeding 100 meters per second. This molten material is atomised by compressed gas and propelled towards the workpiece to form a coating. This combination of high temperature...

EuTronic® Arc wire Arc spray wire production Today the vast majority of wires used for arc wire spraying are solid, extruded wires of standard compositions of zinc and aluminium. By shifting to the more advanced «cored wire», innovation in surface protection is easier to achieve. Cored wires consist of a formal metal strip filled with different powders (metal and mineral). The flexibility in choice of metal and powder compositions, have enabled us to produce wire compositions with new high-tech production equipment that are impossible to produce as solid wires. Such wires have been tuned for...

Arc Wire spray equipment development Castolin Eutectic have been manufacturing specialist cored wires for nearly 20 years to be used on all standard arc wire equipment available on the market. Usually, the superior quality of the wires outperforms competition wires on these standard arc wire spray equipment. In order to extract the best potential of the wires in terms of coating quality and spraying systems, Castolin Eutectic decided to design and bring to the market dedicated Arc Wire Spray equipment in 2007 which would reliably reproduce the excellent quality of the coatings afforded by the...
