SprayWatch systems provide accurate data to enable the best understanding of thermal spray processes. With that knowledge, the user can optimize the process for the best coating quality as well as to minimize production costs, waste and environmental stress.
Oseir’s SprayWatch product family is the solution for quality assurance and diagnostics needs of the thermal spray industry. It combines the measurement of the most important thermal spray parameters into a single, inexpensive and robust system that is easy to adapt and use. SprayWatch systems measure particle velocity, size (SprayWatch 2S only) and trajectory, as well as temperature (SprayWatch G does not measure temperature), density, position and heading of the particle plume. SprayWatch systems are very portable and easy to use. Since 1999, Oseir has delivered several hundred systems with excellent reliability record to satisfied users around the world – to be used not only in research and development, but also in daily quality control of the thermal spray processes.

SprayWatch 2S
SprayWatch 2S system is the top-of-the-line system giving maximum amount of information of thermal spray processes. It can be used in most thermal spray processes including Plasma, HVOF, HVAF (Limited), Arc and Flame spraying.
- All camera settings can be controlled from the computer keyboard outside the spray booth for added convenience. This is especially important when frequently measuring widely varying processes.
- SprayWatch 2S has the widest range of focus distance setting enabling matching of the measured area with the spray plume width in most cases to catch maximum amount of particle data.
- SprayWatch 2S is the only system that provides size estimation.
- SprayWatch 2S is delivered together with a controller (mini PC) that can be either equipped with monitor, keyboard and mouse or accessed easily with another computer. With dedicated own controller the software support and system function are secured.
SprayWatch 4S
SprayWatch 4S is the most sensitive SprayWatch system especially for HVOF and HVAF processes, however, it works well also on the other processes.
- It measures everything except particle size.
- With SprayWatch 4S, camera focus, distance and lens aperture are adjusted mechanically on the camera inside the booth. But if only a few processes are measured in a booth, these settings can be probably set once and there is no need to change between the processes.
- SprayWatch 4S is very portable. The camera weighs approx. 1 kg / 2 lbs.
- It is very compact and only needs a USB extension cord and +12 VDC power supply (both of which are provided with the system).
- SprayWath 4S is delivered together with a controller (mini PC) that can be either equipped with monitor, keyboard and mouse or accessed easily with another computer. With dedicated own controller the software support and system function are secured.
- As an option, the SprayWatch 4S camera can be also delivered with a 45 degree mirror end piece to allow for installation on the robot aligned with the thermal spray gun for continuous monitoring of the process when the spray time is longer or there is some other reason requiring continuous monitoring.
