Abstract
The most expedient method of applying metallic coatings is friction plating with the use of rotating wire brushes (RWB). The coating metal is pressed against the bristles of the RWB and heated to high temperatures in the contact region. Particles of the coating metal are then captured by the ends of the bristles and transferred to the surface of the product being coated. The surface layer is simultaneously subjected to plastic deformation. The article presents the main parameters of the process and describes its ranges of application.
