AB Thermal spray is one of the most widely used coating techniques to improve wear, surfacefatigue or corrosion properties. In the atmospheric plasma spray (APS) process, a powdered materialis melted by hydrogen and argon combustion and is propelled at high speed onto the target substrate.The high impact energy of the particles produces a dense and resistant coating layer. Mechanicaland surface properties of the obtained coating depend on various spraying parameters, such asgas flow, traverse speed and spraying distance, among others. In this research, the influence ofthese manufacturing parameters on the thickness, hardness and resistance of the coating obtainedfrom a Ni-Al alloy sprayed onto an aluminum alloy substrate was studied. In order to analyze theeffect of these parameters on the coating properties, an extensive experimental program was carriedout. A metallographic analysis, hardness and strength measurements were carried out using thesmall punch test to locally study the mechanical properties of the coating surface. The design ofexperiments and the response surface methodology facilitate the assessment of the optimal set ofspraying parameters.
