Advantages
The GLADIATOR SPARTACUS system stands out due to its many significant application advantages and to improved performance and quality:
- In-factory or on-site applications on installed items that cannot be removed
Pipes, tanks, metal structures in general, installations, etc.
- Repair and restoration works on items coated with thermoplastic material using traditional methods
Electrostatic, fluidised bed or extrusion
- High productivity
- Flexibility and versatility of use
Access to hard-to-reach areas and very small spaces
- It can be used on any kind of substrates
Metals, concrete, fibreglass, plastic, wood, cardboard, non-slip applications
- One-step application cycle
The thermoplastic powder is applied in just one step, directly on the pre-treated (sandblasted) surface of the substrate, and pre-heated with a gun and/or additional torch
- Coatings can be fully repaired or touched up immediately
Coatings can be repaired by simply re-melting the powder on the surface to be repaired or its thickness increased (unlimited)
- Safe for operators
- No overspray
- Immediate use of the item coated
- Long coating duration
Coatings last longer when compared with traditional coating systems; additional corrosion protection solutions where other systems fail.
- Coatings can be applied in any weather conditions
Due to this highly versatile Gladiator flame-spraying system, thermoplastic powders can be applied given any weather condition
- Cost-effective
High-quality results of the anti-corrosive protection for on-site applications as well as when used on large structures/plants already operational, without the need to stop their regular activities for a long time
- Photo-luminescent version
