Laser Cladding
Laser cladding is the process for reconditioning the workpiece's surface structure or improving the surface quality and protecting the workpiece against wear and/or corrosion.
During laser powder cladding, the high energy output from the laser is used to adhere metallic powder fed from the outside to the base material of a workpiece in a metallurgic process, thus reconditioning the workpiece's surface structure or improving the surface quality and protecting the workpiece against wear and/or corrosion.
- THE ADVANTAGES OF LASER POWDER CLADDING IN BRIEF:
• Low dilution (less than 5%)
• Metallic bond and low porosity
• Very low distortion due to low energy input
• Good surface quality with little roughness
• High powder efficiency (up to 90%)
• High process speed at up to 3 m/min
