Fluidised Bed Coating (FBC) is a viable and low-cost technique to apply, at ambient temperature, thin adherent ceramic coatings onto metal and non metal substrates. Al 2O 3 films, by virtue of its special thermo-mechanical, chemical, electrical and optical properties, belong to a class of ceramic coatings of particular interest in several manufacturing processes. In this respect, the present paper reviews selected applications in manufacturing of Al 2O 3 coated aluminium substrates. In particular, the use of fluidised bed deposited thin Al 2O 3 films has been reported as surface overlay coatings to improve the fatigue behaviour of aluminium components, as absorption and thermal barrier coatings in sheet laser forming and, finally, as anti-wear protective coatings.

Abstract
Fluidised Bed Coating (FBC) is a viable and low-cost technique to apply, at ambient temperature, thin adherent ceramic coatings onto metal and non metal substrates. Al 2O 3 films, by virtue of its special thermo-mechanical, chemical, electrical and optical properties, belong to a class of ceramic coatings of particular interest in several manufacturing processes. In this respect, the present paper reviews selected applications in manufacturing of Al 2O 3 coated aluminium substrates. In particular, the use of fluidised bed deposited thin Al 2O 3 films has been reported as surface overlay coatings to improve the fatigue behaviour of aluminium components, as absorption and thermal barrier coatings in sheet laser forming and, finally, as anti-wear protective coatings.
