Abstract:
Various embodiments include a method for producing a structure with a cold gas spraying method comprising: providing a carrier with a carrier surface, to which the structure is to be attached by the cold gas spraying method by following a travel path; and providing an element with an element surface different from the carrier surface. The element is arranged in the travel path and/or the travel path is specified such that intersections of the travel path and/or interruptions of the structure are arranged on the element surface.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a cooling device for a spraying nozzle, in particular for cold gas spraying, and to a spraying nozzle assembly equipped with such a cooling device. The spraying nozzle is surrounded by an enclosure forming the cooling device, wherein it is provided according to the invention that a cooling line within the enclosure forms a closed system which can be supplied with a cooling medium by way of an inlet and an outlet. The cooling medium therefore advantageously does not come into contact with the spraying nozzle, which is inserted into a receiving opening in the enclosure by means of a loose fit. The closure may also advantageously taper conically towards the mouth of the spraying nozzle, and therefore coatings can also be applied to difficultly accessible components by means of the spraying nozzle assembly according to the invention.

The present disclosure relates to electrochemical erosion of material from a workpiece. For example, a device for electrochemical erosion of material from a workpiece may include: a holder for the workpiece; an electrolyte carrier material impregnated with electrolyte; a voltage source imposing a negative potential on the electrolyte carrier; and a mechanical connection between the holder and the electrolyte carrier allowing a relative movement with at least one degree of freedom.
Abstract:
Various embodiments include a cold gas spraying system for generating an adjustable particle jet. The system may include: a nozzle from which the particle jet emerges; a supply device for supplying a particle stream to the nozzle; and one or more actuators operable to reduce the particle stream and/or the particle jet during operation. At least one of the actuators comprises a valve arranged between the supply device and the nozzle.

Abstract:
A method is disclosed for producing a hollow body by cold spraying. A mold core is used for producing the hollow body, the mold core being prepared for the production of the hollow body by cold spraying in a suitable manner by means of an auxiliary layer. The auxiliary layer may include or consist of a metallic material and therefore forms a suitable surface to which the particles processed by cold spraying remain adhered to form the hollow body. The mold core can therefore be produced from an inexpensive material such as sand or wood, although said materials are in principle have limited suitability for depositing metals by cold spraying. The auxiliary layer can be applied to the mold core as a foil, or be produced on the mold core by cold-spraying low-melting and/or soft materials, for example.
