Abstract
The apparatus and method for spray casting a spray of molten metal on a moving substrate. The leading edge of the spray pattern is deflected away from or into the spray pattern to eliminate the cooler and less dense particles of the leading edge from contacting the substrate. The deflector preferably has a surface of non-wetting material to prevent the build up of material thereon.
