The high velocity oxyfuel (HVOF) powder spray process represents the state of the art for thermal spray metallic coatings. HVOF is also known as the hypervelocity oxy-fuel powder spray process, the oxyfuel detonation [OFD] process, and the D-gun process. The technology is based on extremely high kinetic energy powder particles and controlled thermal energy output that produce very-low-porosity coatings that exhibit high bond strength, fine as-sprayed surface finish, and low residual stresses.
