The same standard. Different sectors
The critical components inside power and energy systems face the same challenges as those in flight: heat, wear, fatigue.
The coatings and process control expertise we’ve built over decades hold wherever they are: on a turbine, on an offshore valve, or a part bound for an aircraft.
When a customer needed a thermal coating repair for its industrial gas turbine fuel nozzles, we developed a process that proved itself. So well in fact we took it and used it for aerospace customers.
Thermal coatings and repair for industrial components.
Aerospace-grade coatings
We apply and verify thermal coatings in-house Across critical industrial components from gas turbine engine components to oil and gas valves.
Component repair
Repairing rather than replacing keeps parts in use for longer, with the lower cost and reduced environmental impact that brings.
Proven on GE aeroderivative engines
Our work includes GE’s LM2500 and LM6000 aeroderivative gas turbines.
Why aerospace capability matters here.
The aerospace-proven thermal spray processes with robotically controlled application and in-house metallurgical verification protects industrial components including those destined for gas turbines as well as valves in the oil and gas industry.
Built on aerospace credentials.
We carry out all power generation work under the same NADCAP-accredited processes and in-house metallurgical testing serving aerospace programmes of Rolls-Royce, Airbus and Safran.
