Budzar Industries has proven to
be a preferred supplier of custom
thermal management systems for
the military and defense industry
because of our ability to understand
the sometimes unique and
special situational requirements
and engineer a system specic to
those requirements.

The ceramic structure of PEO's coating exceeded upwards of 2,000 hours in salt spray testing without
corrosion, against traditional anodizing lasting just 200 hours.
precision is extremely sensitive components
that require sufficient protection
from the extremities of space. These
include cold welding, cryogenic conditions
and extreme fretting wear.
A specialized PEO composite was
developed for use on the complex structural
parts of the NIRSpec. The PEO process
provided the components with a
consistent and reliable coating across
their complex geometries, eliminating
the risk of through-thickness cracks. The
coating itself provided a hard and durable
composite with low sticking characteristics
to protect the NIRSpec from
wear, extremely low temperatures and
the risk of cold welding.
Weight optimization is a crucial element
of electric vertical takeoff and
landing (eVTOLs) design. A kilogram of
petrol holds 13 KWh, whereas the same
of lithium-ion batteries holds 0.3 KWh.
Because of this, energy efficiency is a priority
to maximize the operational range
of these aircraft; an aspect which is
directly affected by weight. Light metals
and alloys enable the reduction of
weight to both improve efficiency and
maximize payloads but face extreme
conditions as a result.
Mg alloys became a tested material for
eVTOLs due to its strength-to-weight
ratio that optimizes the propulsion
power of electrical systems. That said,

Mg faces two extremities that are commonplace
in aircraft; corrosion from
extreme weather conditions at high altitudes
and abrasive wear from moving
parts such as the electric multirotor. PEO
not only provides sufficient hardness to
protect Mg alloy components from these
factors but provides the characteristics
to increase their operational lifespan.
Weight optimization is a foundational

engineering element of aerospace and
defense. Light metals and alloys have
developed in parallel, pushing the boundaries
of what is considered the limit of
design. Advanced material science and
surface coating technologies are protagonists
in pushing these boundaries, with
scientists realizing bespoke and customizable
solutions to a range of challenges.
PEO acts as the trailblazer of modern
material science; a fully customizable surface
coating solution that provides engineers
and designers with the specific characteristics
their components need to
maximize their lifespan. With its use
already adopted by NASA and Boeing, it is
clear that PEO is a technology that can
drive the modern designs of A&D forward.
