Metal spraying for coating industrial pieces and products are applied in different industrial fields. In these recent years, many researchers have focused on developing various metal spraying methods and their relevant conditions and characteristics. Metal spaying are applied for revamping and reforming new and worn out pieces. In the surface coating by metal spraying, metal particles shoots to the considered surface to make mechanical coating. The advantages of metal sprayed coating which makes this method more desirable for designers in industrial products are, surface uniformity, good porosity for oil suction, high solidity, adhesion to the base metal, resistance against acids and resistance against impact, rust, pressure and wear. In this paper, an investigation is made on different methods of metal spraying such as hot, cold and plasma spraying methods in addition to the advantages and the shortcomings of each one. In addition, the surface preparation for products are introduced.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
