Re: Is it feasible to metal spray a cam?

The place that did mine is no longer in business but the best place too look is a industrial repair shop. The ones that use spray process is people that repair shafts for electric motors or conveyor repair. Many industrial repair shops use them every day. I really feel it will work if the point load contact is not too high. The process used to day is more stable than what I used then and I was really suprised how hard the surface was. Had too be ground as it was well into the Rockwell C scale. And it takes very little time to do it. You will need to have some high temp insulation to put between each journal as you spray.
