Abstract

Cold spray is a solid-state coating deposition technology which has recently been applied as an additive manufacturing process to fabricate individual components and to repair damaged components. In comparison with fusion-based high-temperature additive manufacturing processes, cold spray additive manufacturing (CSAM) has been shown to retain the original properties of the feedstock, to produce oxide-free deposits, and to not adversely influence underlying substrate materials during manufacture. Therefore, CSAM is attracting considerable attention from both scientific and industrial communities. Although CSAM is an emerging additive manufacturing technology, a body of work has been carried out by various research groups and the technology has been applied across a range of manufacturing areas. The purpose of this paper is to systematically summarize and review the CSAM-related work to date.
