#PROP_VALUE#
The MP 3000 HVOF-LF Spray System is a dedicated industrial platform for liquid-fueled high-velocity oxy-fuel coating. It combines MP 3000 digital process control with a liquid-fuel delivery package and compatible HVOF spray guns for kerosene- or ethanol-based processes.
The system coordinates liquid fuel, oxygen, carrier gas, powder feeding, gun cooling, ignition, process programs, diagnostics, safety functions, and connected automation equipment. GST configurations include the JP5000 with kerosene and oxygen.
Each HVOF-LF system is engineered around the selected gun, coating material, component geometry, production rate, required automation level, fuel-storage concept, and site conditions. The result is a complete liquid-fuel HVOF platform for repeatable and traceable industrial production.
Key benefits
- Dedicated HVOF-LF configuration for liquid-fueled spraying.
- Compatibility with JP5000 and the other HVOF-LF spray guns.
- Supports kerosene according to the selected gun package.
- Dedicated liquid-fuel pump and separate storage arrangement as part of the HVOF-LF architecture.
- GST MCoat™ software for recipe management, monitoring, diagnostics, data recording, and maintenance functions.
- Powder-feeding architecture supporting up to four independent feed lines in the standard configuration.
- Integrated cooling supervision and dedicated refrigeration for water-cooled HVOF guns.
- Designed for robotic coating systems with robots, positioners, acoustic enclosure, filtration, and safety interlocks.
System configuration
In the HVOF-LF configuration, liquid fuel is stored in a dedicated tank and delivered to the system by a specialized pump, while oxygen and carrier gas are controlled through the process gas architecture. The selected gun determines the approved fuel package: GST lists JP5000 with kerosene and oxygen.
The liquid-fuel version therefore has a distinct process architecture that includes fuel storage, fuel pumping, controlled oxygen delivery, powder feeding, cooling, ignition, automation, and site-specific safety engineering. Fuel selection must always remain linked to the approved HVOF gun and qualified process recipe.
Digital
MP 3000 modular digital process control system
MP 3000 Process Control Center
The Process Control Center coordinates the HVOF-LF system through a digital control architecture and HMI. It manages operating programs, alarms, connected modules, user access, process data, diagnostics, and maintenance information.
GST MCoat™ Process Control Software
GST MCoat™ is the process-control environment used to operate and supervise the MP 3000 HVOF-LF platform. It coordinates liquid-fuel delivery, oxygen and carrier gas, powder feeding, gun status, cooling supervision, diagnostics, data acquisition, program management, and external-module integration.
For liquid-fueled HVOF production, stored operating programs and controlled user access are especially important because the qualified process window is linked to the selected gun and fuel package.
Main software functions

Mass flowmeters
High-precision, with digital connection
Gas Management Center
The Gas Management Center regulates oxygen, carrier gas, and other configured gases while interfacing with the liquid-fuel delivery package. Features include high-precision mass flowmeters, in-line pressure regulators, pressure transmitters, gas microfilters, and stainless-steel tubing and fittings.
Kerosene + O₂
JP5000 fuel / oxidizer
Liquid Fuel Pump and Storage System
HVOF-LF operation uses a dedicated liquid-fuel pump and a separate storage tank for the approved fuel. GST configuration places the tank in a separate room and supplies fuel to the Gas Management Center through the specialized pump. The final installation must be engineered for kerosene or ethanol, the selected gun, site layout, and applicable safety requirements.
Gun interface
Gun utilities, cooling-water monitoring, ignition
Switching Module
The Switching Module provides the interface between the process system and the selected JP5000 or the other HVOF-LF spray gun. It manages gun utilities, cooling-water monitoring, ignition, and process connections required by the configured gun package.
Powder Feeder
The powder feeder transports coating powder to the gun using carrier gas. The standard architecture can support up to four independent powder feed lines, with volumetric feeding, optional gravimetric control, 1.5 L or 5 L hoppers, heating, agitation, quick-change hoppers, and powder-level monitoring.
Forced-water
Cooling with dedicated refrigeration unit
Refrigeration Unit
Liquid-fueled HVOF guns operate under high thermal load and require reliable forced-water cooling. The refrigeration unit is selected to maintain stable cooling conditions for the configured gun throughout the coating cycle.
Robots + positioners
Industrial robots, gun manipulators, workpiece positioners
Manipulators and Positioners
Industrial robots, dedicated gun manipulators, and workpiece positioners control the relative motion between the HVOF gun and the component, maintaining spray distance, angle, traverse speed, and trajectory.
Booth + filtration
Soundproof spray booth; exhaust and filtration unit
Peripheral Equipment
A complete HVOF-LF cell can include a soundproof spray booth and exhaust/filtration unit. HVOF spraying generates high noise, heat, dust, and overspray, so engineered acoustic enclosure and extraction are integral to industrial installation.

FAQ
What is the MP 3000 HVOF-LF Spray System?
The GST MP 3000 HVOF-LF Spray System is a stationary, modular High Velocity Oxy-Fuel thermal spray platform using liquid fuel, designed for automated and robotic production coating. The system uses a liquid fuel—typically kerosene in the standard HVOF-LF configuration—together with oxygen to generate a high-pressure combustion jet. Powder is introduced into the spray gun, heated and accelerated to very high velocity, and deposited onto the prepared component surface.
Which HVOF spray guns are used with the HVOF-LF configuration?
The current GST MP 3000 HVOF configuration can be used with JP5000 and with the other compatible liquid-fueled HVOF guns.
What fuels can the HVOF-LF system use?
Configurations include kerosene with the JP5000. The fuel is selected together with the approved gun package.
Does the HVOF-LF system require separate fuel storage?
Yes. The architecture uses a separate liquid-fuel tank and a specialized pump supplying fuel to the process system. Final placement and safety design are project-specific.
Which coatings is the JP5000 used for?
The JP-5000 is primarily used for dense, wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant HVOF coatings, especially carbide-based materials. It is a liquid-fuel HVOF gun operating with kerosene + oxygen, and is widely regarded as a benchmark gun for high-performance production coatings.
Why JP5000 is the universal HVOF-LF gun?
The JP-5000 is often treated as a “universal” or benchmark HVOF-LF gun, not because it can spray literally every HVOF material, but because it covers a very broad range of standard liquid-fuel HVOF applications with a mature, robust process window.
