Abstract: A method for use in a coating process includes pre-heating a substrate in the presence of a coating material and shielding the substrate during the pre-heating from premature deposition of the coating material by establishing a gas screen between the substrate and the coating material. An apparatus for use in a coating process includes a chamber, a crucible that is configured to hold a coating material in the chamber, an energy source operable to heat the interior of the chamber, a coating envelope situated with respect to the crucible, and at least one gas manifold located near the coating envelope. The at least one gas manifold is configured to provide a gas screen between the coating envelope and the crucible. A second manifold provides gas during a later coating deposition to compress a vapor plume of the coating material and focus the plume on the substrate to increase deposition rate.

Abstract: A method or control strategy in a coating apparatus for use in a coating process can include controlling differential gas pressures among multiple selected localized zones in a coating chamber with respect to each other. The controlled differential gas pressure of the multiple selected localized zones is used to influence how a coating deposits on at least one component. The localized zones can be selected from a first localized zone around the component, a second localized zone adjacent the source of coating material, a third localized zone that diverges from the second localized zone toward the first localized zone, and a fourth localized zone that circumscribes at least the third localized zone
