Thermal Spray Zinc on Mabey Bridge Wind Towers
Thermal spray zinc coating manually applied to a traditional cylindrical wind tower.
Metallisation Arc Spray systems are used to apply zinc coatings to the insides and outsides of wind towers. The long supplies packages make spraying the internal areas of long towers a more simple and efficient process. The hand-held pistol is flexible to move around the spray areas and has a manageable throughput.
Metallised zinc coatings are applied predominantly to areas that may be damaged during assembly and installation. The robust zinc coating will give sacrificial corrosion protection to areas where the paint coatings may be damaged.
Thermal Spray Zinc on Andresen Towers Wind Towers
Metallisation ARC528E systems with 1500A energisers are robot mounted to produce high volume, high quality repeatable coatings to give corrosion protection and increase bolt joint friction. The 1500A systems enable high production rates required to keep up with the demand for this unique design of wind tower.
