: The coating is Stellite #6, it is plasma arced onto stainless steel type 316.
: Would the fact that the machining involves an intermittent cut cause a problem? (This is machining an off-set cone profile onto the seat).
:Hi,
I suppose it is a plasma transferred arc process , which is the most widely used process for this application. Normally grinding is used in finishing operation of Stellite6 coating.
