GST TriCone-90 Plasma Gun

GST TriCone-90 Advanced Plasma Spray Gun

The GST TriCone-90 Advanced Plasma Spray Gun represents the next generation of high-performance plasma spray technology, delivering outstanding results at power levels up to 90 kW. Building upon the proven Triplex plasma gun concept, the TriCone-90 combines superior coating quality, exceptional process stability, enhanced efficiency, and optimized operating costs to meet the demanding requirements of modern thermal spray applications.

Featuring an innovative design concept that is unique among thermal spray systems, the TriCone-90 establishes new benchmarks in performance, efficiency, economy, and environmentally responsible operation.

Superior Performance

The TriCone-90 enables the production of a wide range of high-quality atmospheric plasma spray (APS) coatings with exceptional consistency and reliability. Its advanced internal design provides performance capabilities beyond those achievable with conventional plasma spray guns. The compact geometry, combined with right-angle hose and cable connections, offers outstanding flexibility when processing components with complex shapes, including internal surfaces and bores.

A wide selection of optimized nozzles allows precise control of spray velocity and plasma plume geometry, ensuring optimal process parameters for each specific coating application.

Enhanced Efficiency

The TriCone-90 is designed to reduce powder consumption, energy usage, and overall processing time.

Optimized heat transfer between the plasma gas and the injected powder particles, combined with a highly stable plasma energy profile, creates ideal conditions for efficient particle melting and acceleration. This results in improved deposition efficiency, higher application rates, and consistently superior coating performance.

Cost-Effective Operation

The TriCone-90 represents a smart long-term investment, offering one of the lowest operating costs per hour among industrial plasma spray systems.

Consumable components are designed for quick replacement during scheduled maintenance intervals, while routine servicing can be easily performed by the customer’s own technical personnel, reducing downtime and operating expenses.

Environmentally Responsible Design

The operation of the TriCone-90 contributes to more sustainable thermal spray processes by reducing resource consumption, material waste, and noise emissions.

Its high deposition efficiency significantly minimizes overspray losses, while improved thermal efficiency lowers overall energy consumption. For many applications, high-quality coatings can be achieved using argon-only plasma parameters, eliminating the need for limited and expensive helium gas.

Combined with the elimination of thoriated tungsten components, the TriCone-90 represents a new generation of environmentally conscious plasma technology — a true “green plasma spray gun”.

TriCone-90 — the next generation of advanced plasma spray technology, delivering unmatched coating quality, process reliability, and operational efficiency.
