Flame equipment
“Flame” equipment are used to create oxy-gas ( or air-gas) flame – The flame is a heating source that allows many industrial applications.
This technology is very flexible and easy to be deployed – it is used for different applications as :
- Flame Cutting : a preheating flame combined with an oxygen jet make possible to remove materials and to cut metals
- Flame Welding : the flame melts the parts to be assembled and identical metal : the 2 parts are welded
- Flame Brazing : the flame allow to joined metals materials (similar or dissimilar) with an auxiliary materials which often is dissimilar and with a low melting temperature. Base metals are not melted.
- Flame gouging: a preheating flame and an oxygen jet make possible to remove materials, usually welding beads.
- Flame heating: in order to prepare a surface for some treatment (welding, forming, …)
- Flame spraying : the flame is melting some materials in powder form which are creating a corrosion protection or other better characteristics of the work piece
- Flame blasting of concrete : in order to renovate and clean concrete surface
The main equipment produce by EWA members are regulators, blow pipes, flame spraying guns for thermal spraying, safety devices
