HARDFACING

Valuable equipment is subject to extreme wear by abrasion corrosion, erosion, friction, heat or impact.

ADVANTAGES OF HARDFACING Technologies

• Prolongs the life of parts and increases efficiency
• Reduces equipment downtime as it keeps equipment longer working.
• Productivity and profitability is increased
• Reduction of spare parts inventory.
• Resurfaced parts will help to reduce stocks of new parts normally required for emergency and general replacement
• Reduced power (energy) consumption.
• Parts hard faced with ARCWEL Alloys can outlast unprotected parts many times

What to consider before hardfacing TECHNOLOGIES– what is the wear problem?

• Is abrasion, impact, heat, friction, cavitation or corrosion present ?
• Which is the most important?
• What consumable can meet the demands?
• What is the base material composition-carbon, manganese, low alloy, stainless steel?
• What method or process is best to use or available ?(SMAW ,GTAW, MIG. OXY ACETYLENE, THERMAL SPRAY etc.)
• What Skills do your welders have?
• Is preheat necessary? What about cooling?
• Is there old hard facing on the part which needs to be removed?
• Is build up necessary before hard facing (buffer layer)
• What position is needed for welding? Which welding sequence is to be used?
• What size of electrode, wire or rod is needed?
• What quantity is required? Not Sure ?? We can help you to find the best solution : contact us today at: info@arcwel.at
