Floride Ion Cleaning (FIC)
- Employs a chemical vapor process
- Hydrogen fluoride gas penetrates and reduces oxides on all surfaces
- Minute cracks will be cleaned
- An “alloy depleted surface” is created (not detrimental to part)
- Primarily used prior to brazing and welding repairs
Thermal Spray
- Fully Automated
- Controlled thickness to customer Specifications
- No Dimensional Limitations
- LPPS – Low pressure plasma spray, thermal plasma, HVOF, & dual arc
Vacuum Furnace
- 1 Heat Treat Machine
- 1 Brazing Machine
- Used for Age, Stress, Solutions, Aneal, Precipitation hardnesss
- Working zone = 2’ x 4’
Brazing
- Brazing creates an extremely strong joint, usually stronger than the base metal pieces themselves, without melting or deforming the components
- No limitation on size of part, only on the airflow
Electron Beam (EB) Welding
- Single pass welding of thick joints
- Hermetic seals of components retaining a vacuum
- Low distortion
- Low contamination in vacuum
- Low contamination in vacuum
