Our successful development of automated ESD coatings and surface modifications has resulted in projects for ESD coatings of advanced alloys and HEAs. These more difficult (but more lucrative) materials require even more advanced management of the welding parameters employed. For instance, the formation of ESD's characteristic "peaks and valleys" need to be anticipated and reduced to achieve zero porosity.

About Huys Industries Ltd.:

Huys designs, builds, uses, sells and supports proprietary and patented equipment that can weld coatings, modify surfaces, and repair metal components with ESD (electric-spark deposition) that have superior wear, corrosion, strength and fatigue properties without creating a HAZ. At the same time the process is "green", is relatively inexpensive, uses little electricity and no or limited shielding gases, has no or little waste or discarded gases or splatter, is easy to use and is readily portable.

Project Objectives:

Software and hardware to effectively gather the data required
Effectively use the data gathered to be able to act upon the subset of useful data to change welding parameters, as required
To use this data, and the resulting changes in welding parameters required, in actual production ESD automation equipment, to improve quality and the speed of production
Upon success, we would use this A.I. in other applications outside of ESD

What THEY bring to the table:

We bring our patented equipment, proprietary knowledge of ESD, and our inhouse design and production capabilities.

What YOU will bring to the table:

We are seeking a capable A.I. provider who has done this work before.
