ABSTRACT:
The refurbishing process permits an overlay to be formed on a casting to repair cracks, distortions and the like as well as to build up undersized sections. During refurbishing, a plasma arc is established under an electric current of less than 30 amps to form a shallow pool of molten metal on a casting. Powdered metal is delivered slightly above the molten pool and, subsequently, the melted powder and molten pool solidify to an overlay having a high integrity, cast structure which is metallurgically bonded to the casting with minimal dilution.
