The fluid distribution plates and the storage tanks, made of aluminum alloy, are Electron Beam Welded (EBW) since this process guarantees a sound joint, having a high resistance to the operating pressure, with a reduced heat input to the base material.

The valve bodies, made of a Ni-based superalloy, undergo to an ageing heat treatment in a vacuum furnace to increase their hardness and therefore their mechanical properties at ambient and at the high operating temperatures.

The inner diameters of the valves are coated with a hard-coating applied with HVOF process, in order to increase their hardness and therefore wear resistance.
The combustion chambers are coated with a thermal barrier (TBC) applied with Plasma process (APS), in order to protect the base material from the thermal stresses to which the parts are subjected in operation, extending their useful life.
