Method for coating components
A method for coating a component of a turbomachine is disclosed. The method includes covering a first surface of the component with a covering device, where the covering device is profiled in a zigzag shape. The method further includes applying a coating material via cold kinetic compaction or kinetic cold gas spraying on the component such that a second surface of the component is coated with the coating material and such that particles of the coating material are deflected off of the covering device so that the particles do not adhere to the covering device.
1. A method for coating a component of a turbomachine, comprising the steps of:
covering a first surface of the component with a covering device, wherein the covering device is profiled in a zigzag shape; and
applying a coating material via cold kinetic compaction or kinetic cold gas spraying on the component such that a second surface of the component is coated with the coating material and such that particles of the coating material are deflected off of the covering device so that the particles do not adhere to the covering device.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the covering device is profiled such that the covering device includes a plurality of first sections and a plurality of second sections, wherein each of the first sections is disposed at a right angle with respect to the first surface, wherein each of the second sections is disposed at an angle of at least 30° with respect to the first surface, and wherein each of the second sections is positioned between two respective adjacent first sections.
3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein particles of the coating material that are directed at the first surface of the component at a right angle with respect to the first surface are deflected off of the second sections.
4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the covering device is profiled such that the covering device includes a plurality of first sections and a plurality of second sections, wherein each of the first sections is disposed at a first angle between 30° and 90° with respect to the first surface, wherein each of the second sections is disposed at a second angle with respect to the first surface that is smaller than the first angle, and wherein each of the second sections is positioned between two respective adjacent first sections.
5. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the second angle is at least 30°.
6. The method according to claim 4 , wherein a depression is formed between an adjacent first section and a second section and wherein no particles of the coating material reach a region of the depression.
7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the covering device is formed of a metallic material.
8. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the covering device is formed of a hard plastic.
