Thermal Spray Metal Coating for Coiled Sucker Rods

A system for coating a coiled sucker rod, the system comprising:

• a conveyance system configured to transport the coiled sucker rod to different components of the system;
• a first reel configured to contain a coiled sucker rod;
• a pre-heater connected to the first reel through the conveyance system and configured to receive the coiled sucker rod from the first reel through actuation of the conveyance system, wherein the pre-heater is further configured to heat the coiled sucker rod to a temperature ranging from about 0° C. to about 300° C., forming a pre-heated coiled sucker rod;
• an abrasive media blasting device comprising an abrasive media tank, a compressor, an abrasive media spray nozzle, and an air tank, the abrasive media blasting device connected to the pre-heater through the conveyance system and configured to receive the pre-heated coiled sucker rod from the pre-heater through actuation of the conveyance system, wherein the abrasive media blasting device is further configured to blast the pre-heated coiled sucker rod with the abrasive media to form a pre-treated coiled sucker rod;
• and
• a thermal spray metal gun system connected to the abrasive media blasting device through the conveyance system and configured to receive the pre-treated coiled sucker rod from the abrasive media blasting device through actuation of the conveyance system, wherein the thermal spray metal gun system is further configured to apply a thermal spray metal coating on the pre-treated coiled sucker rod to form a thermal spray metal coated coiled sucker rod.
