Oxy-acetylene welding torch with powder hopper and injection venturi mounted between a gas mixture and nozzle Powder falls through flame on a workplace where weld pool is maintained and the continuous bead is laid down. Spray and fuse use high heat to increase the bond between the thermal spray coating and the substrate of the part. Unlike other types of thermal spray, spray and fuse create a metallurgical bond between the coating and the surface. This means that instead of relying on friction for coating adhesion, it melds the surface and coating material into one material. Spray and fuse are the difference between adhesion and cohesion.
