Description

The Waterloo Cold Spray Additive Manufacturing (CSAM) Lab conducts research in solid-state additive manufacturing, with a primary focus on cold gas spray (CGS) technology. In this process, micron-sized metal, cermet, and polymer particles are accelerated to velocities exceeding 500 m/s and up to 2000 m/s, enabling the manufacture of components at temperatures below the melting point of the feedstock material, achieving high deposition rates and excellent material properties.

The proposed Spray Booth Enclosure System will house a high-pressure cold spray system (Impact Innovations EvoCSII 6/11) for metal powder deposition. The booth must be suitable for fine metal powder applications and capable of accommodating both an ABB IRB 4600-40/2.55 industrial robot and a Keller VARIO 5-20KMC dust collector tray.
