Industry Trends and Drivers:

• Growing Demand in Automotive and Aerospace Industries:

Many industries today such as automotive and aerospace industries rely on zero friction coatings. It’s used to enhance performance and increase fuel usage. In cars, energy dissipation and wear prevail due to friction in the engine, the transmission, bearings, etc. Zero friction coatings reduced this friction. This results to higher productivity, less fuel consumption and long lasting parts on the machines. Likewise, the aerospace industry must eliminate the friction to achieve better fuel economy, lower operational and maintenance costs, and increase safety. This is important for any components if they are going to be operated under severe conditions. An increase in electrification of new vehicles as well as progressive efficiency improvements in new aircraft is driving the need for friction reduction. This trend is generating a positive market attitude.

• Rising Industrial Automation:

The growth in industrial automation requirement is spurring the need for zero friction coatings. This is so especially with factories having many and complicated mechanical systems that move. Computerized systems require high degrees of accuracy and low down time. The need to avoid wear, increase efficiency and increase the life span of the machines critically demands elimination of friction. Robotics and packing industries are some of the industries where these coatings are applied. Here, facilities are in constant motion… They cause it to run smoothly with little need for frequent overhauls. Currently firms are spending more on these technologies to increase efficiency and accuracy. In areas of semiconductors and pharma production, these coatings are critical. It helps the companies to keep the quality of their products.

• Advancements in Coating Technologies:

The eras of materials science and nanotechnology are in the process of supercharging zero friction coatings. These coatings are now more efficient, harder wearing, and more versatile. New developments in nanotechnology such as nano-coatings and composite improve their ability to oppose wear, high temperatures and corrosion. This make them useful in sectors which include aerospace, automobile and heavy equipments. These progress guarantees that the coatings will withstand difficult conditions with little friction. Also, new methods of applying AI such as thermal spray and chemical vapor deposition (CVD) expand compatible surfaces. Certainly, they include metals, ceramics as well as polymers.
