Powder cladding

Powder cladding

Laser powder cladding is a tightly controlled, automated method for applying functional overlays, delivering precise localised treatment, low overall heat input, minimal distortion, uniform layer quality and high reliability for demanding applications

Key advantages

  • image (14)
    Supports a wide selection of alloy and carbide powders to create functional, wear-resistant coatings
  • image (24)
    Offers precise control of layer thickness and surface profile—ideal for fine restorations and engineered overlays
  • image (23)
    Produces dense, high-hardness layers (up to ~1000 HV) with excellent wear and corrosion resistance
  • image (55)
    Minimises thermal distortion thanks to localised energy input and rapid cooling
  • Metallurgy
    Enables accurate refurbishment of complex or high-value parts such as bearings, rings and blades
  • Metalworking
    Delivers fine-grained microstructures with strong metallurgical bonding to the substrate
