Abstract
Cold spray is a cost-effective, environmentally-friendly repair technology that can effectively reduce non-mission capable rates for DOD assets. It is an additive, solid-state thermal spray process that restores components’ critical dimensional features lost to corrosion, wear or mechanical damage. The process bonds metal to metal in a relatively low-heat environment, whereby metal, or combinations of metallic and non-metallic, particles are injected into a high-velocity gas stream and are directed upon a suitable substrate where they impact and consolidate to form a coating or freestanding structure, without melting.
Cold spray repairs are often faster and safer than traditional methods, eliminating health hazards and reducing safety precautions required by traditional methods. It is used to form corrosion and wear resistant coatings and can also be used to provide dimensional restoration and a means to repair worn and/or corroded parts fabricated from a variety of materials including aluminum, titanium, magnesium, and steel. This virtual forum will feature several presenters who discuss current and future cold spray repair technology and how it is being employed or demonstrated within their DoD organizations to repair both aviation and naval equipment.
