Fundamental KnowledgeBase features are a core component of the ESPRIT CAM system. The following advanced functions are available as an option: Process KnowledgeBase Database of proven processes and best practices. User defines part types and their default machining processes. Using this information, Process KnowledgeBase automatically chooses the most suitable process to machine a given feature, eliminating the need to create operations one by one. Default KnowledgeBase Database of groups of defined machining preferences. Machining preferences are defined by setting default values for each machining cycle. Once defined, default settings are automatically loaded for use in similar projects. Part-Feature KnowledgeBase Database of features (like pockets, slots, shoulders, holes). Part-Feature KnowledgeBase subdivides a given part into features and automatically categorizes these features into feature cases, based on shop's standards, terminology, and each feature's characteristics. Programming automatically starts with a clear definition of what is to be machined. Copyright © 2012-2016 DP TECHNOLOGY CORP. Databases Databases Cutdata A predefined standard containing information about cutting conditions, preferred cutting speeds, and feed rates to use under those conditions. When selected in an ESPRIT document, ESPRIT automatically calculates acceptable cutting speeds and feedrates based on the data.

On-site metalizing and industrial painting/coatings have seen continuous growth over the last 20 years, requiring us to grow our own fleet of mobile equipment to meet the needs of our clients. We’ve also learned what equipment works and doesn’t work in the field. Those experiences have allowed us to develop specialized hardware; either through modification of existing equipment, or development of our own proprietary equipment (ie VersaCoat).

Paragon FusionClad (PPC) Ltd. was started in 1997, with the consolidation of two businesses; Paragon Protective Coatings and FusionClad Superalloys. Paragons’ focus was on-site thermal spray and industrial paint and liquid coatings (for the midstream and downstream oil and gas industry), while FusionClads’ focus was shop-based proprietary fused and welded coatings (for the upstream oil and gas industry).

PPC delivers a complete range of painting and coating services designed to solve all types of corrosion-related problems. For liquid coatings, we carry applicator approvals for most of the major pipeline clients (like TC Energy, IPL, Pembina and Enbridge), and are approved applicators of most coating materials (like Denso, CANUSA, Hempel, Devoe, Carboline, Cloverdale and SPC) .

PPC’s owner and founder started installing thermal spray (metalized) coatings for sour service corrosion protection in 1997. Most installations were heavy industrial, in-situ, confined space applications on process vessel internals.; working in this challenging environment instilled a safety-first culture at PPC from the onset, which carries on today.

The Paragon Protective Coatings Ltd. office/shop is conveniently located on Edmonton’s east side, west of the Anthony Henday and just south of the Sherwood Park FWY.

Most of our coating applicators are trained in both thermal spray and industrial paint/coating processes. This allows us to deploy one crew to your project, and execute both thermal spray and coating scopes as required. This reduces mobilization/demobilization costs, and has proven to improve the overall execution schedule.

Thermal spray (metallized) coatings are applied on components needing protection from wear and/or corrosion. This includes water walls, super heaters, reheater tubes, tube shields, ID fans and housings, structural steel, process vessel exteriors & interiors, boilers and process piping. For simple atmospheric corrosion on structural steel, to complex process corrosion on pressure vessels, there’s likely a thermal spray solution in our service offerings.

Whether in the shop or the field, Paragon Protective Coatings (PPC) Ltd. offers professional solutions to protect our clients’ assets. We have access to proven equipment and superior materials, and our highly skilled staff and decades of experience ensures that we deliver the best solution to your corrosion or wear problem.

Paragon Protective Coatings Ltd. is the leading Industrial Painting and Industrial Coating contractor in Western Canada with both field and shop operations. Having well-established relationships with some of the largest midstream companies, Paragon has displayed its ability to meet the toughest coating specification requirements in the energy industry.

Our Project Managers and Supervisors have 20+ years’ experience, and are supported by Technical and Management staff with extensive construction and engineering experience. Paragon’s field and shop supervisors are AMPP trained inspectors and support our work crews who are trained, experienced, and proven competent with in-house training and testing. Ongoing third-party training and education ensures that our entire team remains up-to-date on current procedures, materials and technology.
