About BERTRAM I.S.S.
BERTRAM Industrial Surface Solutions (BERTRAM I.S.S.) specialises in surface protection and coating technology. Its core business is thermal flame spraying using powder and wire processes for wear and corrosion protection of components. A special position is held by powder flame spraying in the fusion-bonded process: subsequent fusing creates a seamless diffusion bond between the base and coating material; the coatings are impact-resistant as well as gas- and liquid-tight. Nickel- or cobalt-based powders are used as coating materials, with additives such as tungsten carbide making components wear-resistant. In addition, the company offers complete mechanical manufacturing: CNC turning of complex components, cylindrical grinding, manual polishing as well as sandblasting in a semi-automatic pressure blasting system. The service portfolio covers complete machining of new parts, new production of small and medium series as well as repair and reconditioning of worn components. Production is carried out for mechanical engineering, the chemical industry, the steel industry, plant engineering and automotive suppliers.
