Laser cladding uses a laser to deposit a layer of material onto a substrate by way of powder or wire. This process is used for refurbishing damaged parts to OEM specs, repairing worn surfaces, and providing enhanced corrosion / erosion resistance. This presentation will discuss laser cladding techniques and industrial applications in which these techniques may be applied.
