    Default Combustion wire spraying

    If there’s anyone out there with experience or knowledge about combustion wire spraying using a metco 16 gun I’d be keen to have a chat.

    Might be worth your while to talk to Oerlikon directly ([url=http://www.oerlikon.com[/url]) or Sulzer Metco (http://www.sulzermetco.com/). Oerlikon have two distributors in Melbourne and one in Sydney. I had intended to contact one of them one day...
    If you get a handle on it, I might like to talk to you, because I have one as well, though never used it yet.
    I have a PDF manual for it if that helps? PM me if it does.
    Cheers, Joe

    Thanks Joe, I have the pdf and have been in touch in Oerlikon. Was mostly looking for some hands on pointers as it’s a new area for me and any expertise or insight is better than none. I’ll keep searching.
    Cheers

    There are a few videos on YouTube. I guess you've seen those. I've never seen one used in person....
    Given that we are only a few hours from each other, maybe we should just have a play with them ourselves one day....
    What's stopping you form trying it out?
    Cheers, Joe
