Flame Plating for High Wear Resistance: A Description of the Union Carbide Flame Plating Process, the Type of Coatings available and their Application in the Aircraft Industry
Abstract
THE second flame plating plant to be established in the United Kingdom was brought into service earlier this year at Glossop in Derbyshire. Forming part of the Engineering Products Division of Union Carbide Ltd., these new facilities will, when fully equipped, treble the flame plating capacity available in the U.K., the first plant having been established in the U.K. at Warwick in the late 1950s. This latest development consists primarily of four soundproofed gun compartments, each measuring 18 ft. x 18 ft., and, initially, two guns which with associated equipment represents an investment of £200,000. A further two flame plating guns will be installed by 1967.
