Launch of SinplexPro™ plasma spray gun

Sulzer Metco extends its cascading arc technology via the launch of the SinplexPro™. Building upon the successful design of the TriplexPro™ plasma gun, the SinplexPro combines the benefits of cascading anode design with the simplicity of a single-cathode. The result are guns that spray with higher deposit efficiencies at significantly higher powder feed rates than traditional single-cathode plasma guns.

Thermoset

Sulzer Metco acquired the assets of the carbon business of Thermoset Inc. in Mequon, Wisconsin, USA. This acquisition complemented Sulzer Metco’s high-performance carbon friction product line with a well-proven woven carbon friction material. It also strengthened Sulzer Metco’s position in the global truck and passenger car market.

Cold Spray Technology

Sulzer Metco acquired the cold spray related assets and activities of CGT Cold Gas Technology GmbH and Aircraft Philipp Ampfing GmbH & Co.KG, Ampfing, Germany. With this acquisition, Sulzer Metco established a foundation for participation in and long-term development of the market for cold spray coating solutions.
