A complete guide to the different types of corrosion
Corrosion is a primary cause of premature failure in metals and alloys
An Engineer's Guide to Wear
Wear is often accepted as an inevitable cost of operation but it doesn’t have to be.
How to prevent bearing wear
Bearings are particularly prone to wear that can lead to costly failures/maintenance and reduced operational efficiency.
A guide to mechanical wear prevention
Understanding the causes and preventive measures when it comes to mechanical wear is essential for engineers that want to design long-lasting systems.
Adhesive wear explained - causes, risks and solutions
In order to prolong component life and minimise maintenance costs, engineers need to understand what adhesive wear is, where and why it occurs
What are the different types of wear in metals?
When left unchecked, wear leads to increased downtime and repairs, driving up operating costs and posing safety risks.
Wear resistance - everything you need to know
Engineers need a clear understanding of the basics and types of wear, the risks it brings and the advanced coating solutions to protect components
Hardide Expands US Coating Capabilities
Hardide has upgraded its USA facility in Martinsville, Virginia; expanding the materials that can be pretreated and coated on-site using CVD technology.
The benefits of low-temperature CVD coatings
Recent advancements in low-temperature CVD technology have unlocked new opportunities and benefits for engineers
CVD: Precision coating for complex geometries
Traditional coatings like HCP and HVOF thermal spray often struggle with complex geometries. CVD stands out as the superior solution.
How CVD coatings reduce maintenance and extend equipment lifespan
By extending the service life of critical parts, CVD coatings reduce the frequency of repairs, minimise downtime and lower overall maintenance expenses.
How sustainable metal coatings are transforming industrial environmental impact
We highlight the importance of sustainable metal coatings as global regulations increasingly restrict the use of toxic materials.
