Laser Cladding Machine

Overview

Cladding — 1070 nm

A fiber or diode laser melts metal powder fed coaxially through the cladding head and fuses it to the part surface with very low dilution. Mounted on a CNC or robot with a rotary axis, it rebuilds worn surfaces and adds hard-facing layers that outlast the base metal.

What it does

Dedicated work this machine performs.

01Repair & rebuild

Restore worn shafts, rolls, valve seats and mould edges to size.

02Hard-facing

Stellite, tungsten-carbide and nickel alloys for wear resistance.

03Corrosion protection

Stainless and Inconel layers on pump, valve and hydraulic parts.

04Low heat input

Thin, dense layers with minimal distortion and dilution.

FAQ

Common questions

How is it different from thermal spray or welding?

Laser cladding forms a true metallurgical bond with very low dilution and heat input, so layers are dense and the part barely distorts.

Can you clad our worn parts as a trial?

Yes — send the part or a drawing and the alloy you need; we will suggest the process and run a sample.

Sample first, buy second.

Send your part — we run it on the Cladding and send photos back. Need it customised or integrated into your line? We build that too.
