What is the HVOF process?

HVOF stands for high velocity oxygen fuelled and is a type of thermal spray process used to apply very dense coatings in a wide variety of materials. Coatings applied by HVOF usually have better mechanical properties than those applied by air plasma spray. The HVOF process is now widely used to apply WC-Co coatings as an environmentally friendly alternative to chromium plating on high strength steel aircraft structural components.
