In thermal spray applications, the monitoring of plume and particle properties in order to ensure reliability and reproducability is well established in atmospheric conditions.

This paper discusses the special requirements using particle diagnostic systems for thermal spray applications in vacuum and shows the achieved results with Accuraspray-g3 in VPS and LPPS environments.
