China Coatings Online News, according to U.S. technology news site Gizmag, Ford is recycling old, broken engines, using its patented plasma coating technology (PTWA), to repair them and refresh them, but also reduce carbon dioxide emissions during the repair process.engine life is limited. Typically, the engine is removed and transported to the scrapyon when it does not work. Ford's technology allows faulty or severely worn engines to escape scrapping. The technology reduces carbon emissions by 50% compared to building new engines and makes old, repaired engines look fresh.Juergen Wesemann, ford's director of research and advanced engineering automotive technology and materials, said the technology, which was originally used to improve engine performance, is now being used in engine modifications and is just one of a series of innovations Ford has developed to reduce adverse environmental impacts.Ford now uses a multi-stage multi-material coating formula that uses plasma arc spray guns to liquefy the material and spray it on the inside wall of the engine, allowing the engine to restore initial performance.
Silk, Director of Power Systems Products, Ford's European Customer Service Division, said: "Traditional engine retrofit processes are extremely expensive and resource-intensive, requiring cast iron parts and complex processes. Plasma coating technology, on the other hand, does not require the addition of additional heavy components, and engines that should have been replaced can be reborn. "
Ford applies this technology by removing the engine of a vehicle with high mileage wear, refreshing and repairing the engine body, especially the cylinder, with a plasma coating so that the engine can be reused.pioneering application of plasma coating technology to remand began with Caterpillar inc. and other diesel engine companies in the United States. Given the high cost of replacing old engines with new ones, they turned to using the technology to update high-mileage or highly used engines.
