SBIR-STTR Award

CVD MesoScribe Technologies Corporation will develop a MesoPlasma Direct Write Tool that will eliminate part masking during deposition of metallic and ceramic coatings onto select engine components. The Company’s patented aperture system is integrated with a small plasma spray torch allowing high definition coatings with defined spray pattern widths. This Phase 1 project will modify the aperture system to enable larger width patterns and assess new design improvements with enhanced process capabilities to ensure robust, cost-effective operation in a production environment. Process diagnostics and mapping, coating characterization, and testing are central to the work plan to ensure coatings will meet US Air Force 76 PMGX qualification requirements.

CVD MesoScribe Technologies Corporation will develop a MesoPlasma™ Direct Write Tool that will eliminate part masking during deposition of metallic and ceramic coatings onto knife edge seal engine components. The Company's patented aperture system is integrated with a small plasma spray torch allowing high definition coatings with selectable spray pattern widths. This Phase II project will demonstrate coatings deposited onto representative knife edge seal coupons and components to meet US Air Force 76 PMGX qualification requirements. Additionally, MesoScribe Technologies will implement design improvements to the MesoPlasma™ deposition system to provide enhanced process capabilities to ensure robust, cost-effective operation in a production environment.
