Product catalog summary
Overview of Plasma Welding and Cladding Technology (PTA)
Plasma welding and cladding technology (PTA) is a method that offers several advantages over traditional welding techniques. It is characterized by lower energy consumption, minimal defects in overlays, and high stability and repeatability of the technological process. The technology allows for parameter monitoring and achieves high-quality overlays from the first layer.

Key Specifications and Benefits
  • Energy Efficiency: PTA consumes less energy compared to classical methods.
  • Defect Minimization: The process results in minimal defects such as pores, cracks, and inclusions.
  • Process Stability: Offers stable and repeatable processes with parameter monitoring capabilities.
  • High-Quality Overlays: Achieves high-quality overlays in the first layer, maintaining quality throughout production.
  • Advanced Techniques: Utilizes CNC machines and other progressive techniques for connected operations during machining.
  • Mechanization: High level of mechanization in both piece and series production.
  • Material Versatility: Allows surfacing of additional materials in various forms such as powder, tube, wire, and stick.
  • Metallurgical Connection: Provides a metallurgical type of connection with minimal mixing, ensuring structural uniformity and high internal quality.
  • Minimal Thermal Influence: Reduces thermal impact on the basic material.
  • Environmental Compliance: Produces minimal harmful substances, emissions, and noise, adhering to DIN standards.
  • Surface Uniformity: Ensures minimal surface unevenness with a defined overlay height of 0.5 mm in one layer.

Technical Process
The PTA method utilizes a highly concentrated electric arc to melt additional material while minimizing the melting of the basic material. Additional material is continuously supplied into the plasma stream, allowing for proportional surfacing onto a part. This enables independent control of welding current and material quantity, achieving an optimal thermal regime with minimal mixing depth and high-quality overlay in a single layer of 1 mm height.

Catalog excerpts

Plasma welding and cladding technology (PTA)-1

Plasma welding and cladding technology (PTA) The method is based in highly concentrated electric arc for melting of additional material during simultaneous minimum melting of basic material. Into stream of plasma is continually supplied additional material which is well proportionally surfaced / overlaid onto a part. Plasma surfacing enables extensively and independently control welding current and quantity of additional material. In this way it is possible to achieve optimal thermal regime with minimum depth of mixing and achieve overlay in high quality already in one layer of 1 mm height. We produce PTA machines in accordance with European standards We offer in house overlays and cladding Consumption of overlaying material – Lower consumption of energy in comparison with classical methods – Minimum appearence of defects (pores, cracks, inclusions) in overlay – Stability and repeatability of technological proces including possibility of parameters monitoring – Achieving of high quality overlay already in first layer – Introduction and keeping of high quality overlay and work production – Setting of progressive technique (CNC machines etc.) to connected operations during machining – Higher stage of mechanisation both in piece and in series production – Possibility of surfacing the additional materials in different forms (powder, tube, wire, stick) – Metallurgical type of connection with minimum mixing until 0,5 mm from boundary surface overlay / basic material (e.g. during MIG, UP methods there is mixing 2–7 mm) – Minimum melting loss of alloying addition Cr, Mo, Mn, Si etc. – Structural uniformity and high internal quality of overlay – Minimum thermal influence of basic material – Minimum of harmful substances, emissions and noisiness during welding (accordingly to DIN standards deeply under permitted limit) – Minimum unevenness of surface by defined height of overlay 0,5 mm in one layer (relation with productivity during machining) pta KSK, s.r.o., Podbranská 128 | 560 02 Česká Třebová, Czech Republic | tel.: +420 605 253 542 | www
