Abstract
Methods for production and application of flux-cored electrode wires for flame and electric arc spraying of various-purpose coatings are considered. Possibilities of applying advanced 2.0 and 2.8 mm diameter flux-cored wires for electric arc deposition of coatings are noted. It is shown that high-speed filming can provide important information on the nature of running of the spraying process which determines the coating quality.
