OLMAR | Cold Spray Additive Manufacturing Technology

OLMAR Autoclaves & Additive Manufacturing | #1 Autoclave Supplier | Additive Manufacturing Division | Cold Spray Technology
Founded in 1945 and today a world leader in the manufacture of autoclaves for the curing of composite materials, OLMAR presents its new Additive Technology division.
The future is today.
After more than two and a half years of investment in R & D and the incorporation of the most advanced technologies on its facilities, OLMAR | Autoclaves & Additive Manufacturing was born with the purpose and capacity to face the following challenges:
OLMAR | TOOLING APPLICATIONS
COLD ADDITIVE TECHNOLOGY CAPABILITIES
• Process performed at a relatively low temperature, which avoids metal oxide impurities and other limitations of traditional thermal spraying processes
• Very low levels of porosity (- 1%) in the projected material, since the process is carried out with the material in a solid state
• High toughness of the sprayed metals, due to the impact hardening of the material during the process
• Preservation of the initial composition and structure of the sprayed metals, thanks to the low working temperature, which allows the chemical composition, phase composition and crystal (grain) of the solid spray particles to experience minimal heating
• Coatings of all types of materials without residual compressive stress, allowing the material to be deposited in almost any desired thickness
ADVANTAGES OF COLD ADDITIVE TECHNOLOGY
• Minimum thermal contribution to the substrate
• High joint strength
• Compressive residual stresses
• Thick coatings
• No phase changes
• No oxidation
• No grain growth
• High conductivity
• High resistance to corrosion
• High tenacity and hardness
