In-house Quality Assurance, ISO Certifications, and FDA Registration to ensure the highest standards
Our Facilities and Equipment
APS Materials operates advanced plasma spray facilities designed to meet the highest biomedical standards. Our dedicated coating environments, including isolated booths for hydroxyapatite and silicon, ensure purity and process integrity across every application.
With in-house testing and validation—from tensile and shear testing to XRD analysis—we maintain full control and traceability from coating to final inspection.
The Power Behind Our Coatings
At APS, the arc plasma spray process is the foundation of our biomedical coating excellence. Using a high-temperature plasma jet, we apply uniform layers of titanium and hydroxyapatite with exceptional control over thickness, porosity, and adhesion—essential for high-performance orthopaedic implants.
This process combines thermal and kinetic energy to create strong mechanical bonds, delivering durable, biocompatible coatings that meet the highest regulatory standards.
