| Zusammenfassung: | Similar to overlay welding or chrome plating, thermal spraying is a coating process. Feedstock material in wire or powder form is melted or softened by flame or electricity and applied to the work piece by a spray torch. Different thermal spraying processes have different advantages and disadvantages. Understanding these pluses and minuses is the key to maximizing the advantages offered by thermal-sprayed coatings. Four types of thermal spraying are discussed, including: 1. flame spraying, 2. arc spraying, 3. plasma spraying, and 4. HVOF spraying. |
