Laser Cladding

MILANESE CONSORTIUM PRODUCTION ARTISAN

An innovative welding process

What is laser cladding? It is an innovative welding process that uses the laser source to join the coating material to the base one. This technology is applied for the protection and regeneration of mechanical components such as: shafts, spindles, rods, cylinders, rotors, impellers, blades, bearings, valves belonging to the sectors: energy, oil & gas, iron and steel, hydraulic, agricultural, paper, naval, aeronautical.

Advantages

Low heat transfer to the component, resulting in minimal deformation
Metallurgical adhesion between the coating and the substrate, with a minimum dilution
High-density coatings and homogeneous microstructure that guarantee a finish reduced to a minimum
High process stability, this allows for easy automation
Possibility of combining laser cladding with other Thermal Spray processes
Very high energy efficiency and deposit yield

The layout of our plant and the high automation with the 7-axis robot allows us to cover large components:
