Aerospace - Making aerospace safer, more powerful
and more efficient
INDUSTRY CHALLENGES
■ Focus on turbine efficiency: both cost and 2020
emission reduction goals drive the reduction of the
specific fuel consumption
"
Engine trends: Lighter weight materials have to
withstand erosion, corrosion and extreme
temperatures (>1500 C)
■ Enhanced gas path sealing to increase safety
and efficiency with less emissions
Stringent process and material certification
to ensure safety
SOLUTIONS
■ Customized solution of materials and equipment for
better performance, greater efficiency and absolute
reliability for our customers
■ Thermal spray and thin film coatings extend part lifetime
and improve efficiency and safety of jet engines
■ Thermal barrier coatings on blades and vanes allow
for higher temperature in the turbine
■ Abradable coatings are used in engines to seal
the gas path and improve performance and efficiency
PVD coatings for wear protection in structure parts and
landing gears
■ Decorative coatings for cockpit and interior components
