Abstract :
The main source of information was data collected in the study of the morphology of the surface after different modes of plasma spraying [1]. Microstructure analysis of data shows that coatings have strongly developed structure consisting of deformed melted particles with spherical shapes. Developing the algorithms and software for automatic detection of microparticles in digital images is of practical importance. With these tools available, we are able to create the automatic evaluation system for specific parameters of sprayed-on materials in the digital photos depicting their surfaces. We will be able to know the relative number of spheroidal particles and thereby forcast technological and operational properties of a coating.
