Zusammenfassung:	A thermal spray assembly (10) for transforming precursor material (60) into a layer of deposited material joined to a substrate body. A plasma torch (20) produces a plasma jet from a plasma nozzle (28). A feeder mechanism (30) guides the precursor material (60) into the plasma jet in use and provides a feeder orifice (70) when in an open condition. The feeder mechanism comprises a guide chamber (34) and a moveable guide mechanism (32), and the guide chamber is capable of guiding the precursor material to the feeder orifice, through which the precursor material can move from the guide chamber and enter the plasma jet at a variable mean distance from the plasma nozzle (28) in response to movement of the guide mechanism (32).
