Laser Internal Diameter (ID) Cladding is a high-precision additive manufacturing process used to apply a protective coating to the inner walls of tubes, pipes, and bores. It uses a high-powered laser beam to melt a metallic powder or wire onto the internal surface, creating a metallurgical bond that is exceptionally strong.
FROM AEROSPACE TO AGRICULTURE Once a niche process in specialized aerospace applications , laser cladding has now found applications in the agricultural field as well. By precision Engineering of harvesting and otherground engaging tools, this technology addresses the abrasive wear of tools caused during harvesting of crops and due to soil, stones etc. BENEFITS OF […]
Breathing New Life into Compressor Housings: The Power of Laser Cladding Compressors are the workhorses of countless industries, from oil and gas to power generation and manufacturing. Their robust housings are designed to withstand significant operational stresses, but over time, they inevitably succumb to wear, corrosion, and erosion. Traditionally, damage to a compressor housing often […]
In applications like mining, and many marine applications, the tools are subjected to a very high amount of abrasion. For this, the tools must be very hard and must have high abrasion resistance.
In the laser cladding process the down hole drilling tool is given a coating of another material with higher abrasion / corrosion resistance to enhance the working life of the tool.
Laser cladding and PTA (Plasma Transferred Arc), TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) and MIG (Metal Inert Gas) are all surface coating methods in which either a powder or wire of cladding material is heated and melted
Glass molds are very essential in the glass manufacturing industry. But, they are subject to harsh conditions, wear and tear due to repeated utilization in the manufacturing process. Due to this, Laser Cladding is done on glass molds for increasing their resistance to wear and tear and also for repair and maintenance.
In various industries which use compressed gasses and fluids, compressor rotors play a very important role. They are used for providing the desired pressure and motion to the fluids, which are used in a variety of applications like pneumatic, air conditioning and refrigeration, generation of power, Oil and Gas industry, Chemical Industry, Aerospace Industry, etc.
Extrusion screws are used in plastic industries for the extrusion process. In the plastic extrusion process, molten plastic is forced by the extrusion screw into the die, and the molten plastic achieves the desired shape.
