Abstract

Electric arc spraying has been successfully used for many industrial applications for more than 30 years. High-velocity oxygen fuel (HVOF) spraying is another well-established technology. Coatings produced by the HVOF process, especially carbide-containing coatings, exhibit excellent quality in terms of density and hardness. One approach to obtaining both high deposition rates and dense coatings is to combine electric arc spraying and HVOF spraying in a technique known as the “Sonarc” process. This process al-lows many feed combinations through the simultaneous use of wire and powder. This paper presents the development of a prototype. Examples of composite materials and structures, their properties, and potential applications are given.
