The effect of variations of current, voltage and gas flow on the hardness and wear resistance were optimized by ANN and GA. In the following, the optimum values of current, voltage and gas flow were obtained 90(A), 10(v) and 9 (Lit/min), respectively. Then, the wear behavior in the environment temperature and high temperature for optimized NiAl compound was compared with two other experimental samples.
