    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_gun

    Heat guns are used in physics, materials science, chemistry, engineering, and other laboratory and workshop settings.Different types of heat gun operating at different temperatures and with different airflow can be used to strip paint, [1] shrink heat shrink tubing, shrink film, and shrink wrap packaging, dry out damp wood, bend and weld plastic, soften adhesives, and thaw frozen pipes.

  3. Hot-melt adhesive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot-melt_adhesive

    The gun uses a continuous-duty heating element to melt the plastic glue, which the user pushes through the gun either with a mechanical trigger mechanism on the gun, or with direct finger pressure. The glue squeezed out of the heated nozzle is initially hot enough to burn and even blister skin.

  6. Detonation spraying - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detonation_spraying

    Primarily, surface properties are determined by the type and properties of the powdered feedstock used (composition and particle size) but they are also affected by the settings used on the D-gun. These are powder flow rate, firing rate, distance from gun to target, how the D-gun is moved around to apply the coating, size of barrel, amount and ...

    Heat: the ability to maintain a consistent heat level for the best impression. Die depth: the client's artwork or the engraver's efforts will initially determine the die depth, however, if by looking at the artwork it appears that an adjustment of the die depth may be necessary, the die may need to be retooled to achieve a greater depth.
