Twin wire arc spraying
Thermal spraying can be used to deposit metals, cermets (such as WC-Co), ceramics, polymers in layers typically 60 μm to 10 mm thick, for a wide range of engineering applications. Almost any material can be deposited so long as it melts or becomes plastic during the spraying process. Coating using blends of different materials to produce composite or graded coatings are possible. At the substrate surface, the particles form 'splats' or 'platelets' that interlock and build up to form the coating.
