laser cladding
Thick layers. More wear protection.
laser cladding enormously efficient
Laser-based coating technologies nowadays play a key role in manufacturing and industrial maintenance processes. Due to their high precision, alloys, usually nickel-cobalt based, can be applied in a highly targeted way.
UNIQUE DEMANDS—HIGH WEAR PROTECTION
laser cladding
With high layer strength this process achieves an extremely effective layer adhesion. Laser cladding produces surfaces that seal off any gas and diffusion.
PROPERTIES
Ø Adhesive strength: > 300 MPa
Ø Porosity: 0%
Ø Coating Thickness: 0.2 to 5 mm and more
ADVANTAGES
• Very good layer adhesion due to molten metal bonding
• Partial coating as well as complex geometries possible
• High contour accuracy—even with complex component shapes
• Creation of very fine microstructures
• Limited thermal conductivity
Products ::
valve balls • valve seats • valve flaps and valve shafts • pistons/rods • pump impellers • valve housing • pump casings • extruder screws • machine shafts • guides • bearing seats • crusher jaws • wear protection plates • tilling tools • digger teeth • shredding and recycling parts and components • etc.
Typical Applications ::
parts or components strained by abrasive, erosive or corrosive environments in a broad variety of applications; for example in valves, pumps, extruders, agricultural machines, mining, drilling and extracting technologies, and general mechanical engineering and machine construction.
