HVOF TUNGSTEN CARBIDE COATINGS FOR STEEL MILL ROLLS

The rolls and mandrels in steel mill casting, pickling, cold rolling, continuous tinning and galvanizing lines function in challenging environments leading to erosion, corrosion and severe functional damage.

Endurance provides thermal spray HVOF/HVAF processes utilizing tungsten carbide and chromium carbide. It enhances critical equipment’s endurance and wears resistance in the steel mill industry’s continuous galvanizing and cold mill processing lines. Our TC coatings ensure the long-life serviceability of steel mill rollers despite continual use.

THE SHIELD OF ENDURANCE IMPACT

The first step in reducing wear and increasing endurance is understanding the component’s process. It helps
identify the protective metal coating and build its fortitude.

Did you know?

The main reason for a wear resistance coating is the different temperature gradients that encounterintenseenvironments like oxidation and erosion
protection at an elevated temperature.

The dross on the roll usually occurs when there is a drastic change in the pot temperature or intermittent line stoppage.

New Coating Development for Steel Mill Rollers

Our specific coatings, such as Enduro910, help the Steel Industry address wear issues in the components found in the continuous galvanizing lines, tension and steering, cleaning, furnaces, entry, exit and temper mill departments.

Thermal Spraying TC Coating onto Tower Roll

Large rolls, like bridle, deflector or tower rolls, require special attention from an operator during spraying. Old HVOF systems quickly lose coating quality during continuous spraying and need time to cool down. It compromises the coating quality and increases costs. Our new HVAF equipment can spray the largest tower roll in a couple of hours, maintaining excellent cost-effectiveness and quality.

Tension Leveller Rolls, ROT Rolls

HVAF technology allows a more intricate and uniform tungsten carbide spray coating than the usual HVOF. The extended life of the roll coating with lesser product quality issues is a generous by-product.

Our work conditions include molten zinc, temperatures up to 460-500oC and moderate-to-mild sliding wear. It also includes zinc corrosion and zinc build-up causing dents on the strip that is being galvanized. Hence, HVAF Enduro coating has three important inclinations:

  • Roll substrate adhesion
  • Gas and liquid resistance
  • Molten metal wear and corrosion protection

It results in a longer-lasting, impermeable spray coating.
