Plasma Transferred Arc<\/h1>

The PTA (Plasma Transferred Arc) process is an advanced technique for welding wear-resistant or corrosion-resistant coatings onto metal surfaces. It is particularly suitable for applications where extremely strong adhesion is required, such as in the oil and gas sector, or for intensively used machine parts. <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Thanks to 20 years of experience in automatic PTA welding, Plasmajet has the necessary expertise and equipment to handle even the most demanding assignments.<\/p>\n<\/div>

How Does the Process Work?<\/h2>\n

In PTA, a plasma arc is drawn between an electrode and the workpiece surface. At the same time, a metallic powder is blown into the molten pool, while the whole process is shielded from the ambient air by an inert gas. <\/p>\n

This technique makes it possible to control critical welding parameters very accurately<\/strong>, such as:<\/p>\n
