Applications
Carbide cladding on cutting edges of carbon-steel agricultural knives to enhance wear and strength
Localised surface hardening of wheel treads
Powder cladding for flat, curved and rotating parts, including complex geometries
Repair of a 40Cr carbon-steel crankshaft via iron-based powder laser cladding to restore original dimensions
Thermal hardening of threads, shafts and gears
Welding of centralisers with throughput up to 1,200 pcs/day
Welding of custom profiles, shells and non-standard components
Key advantages
Single-pass weld finish — no secondary machining required, saving time and lowering cost
Heats only the wear-prone zones, minimising thermal load on the remaining part
Laser thermal hardening cuts deformation by up to 10× versus conventional techniques
Rapid heat–cool cycles refine grain structure, improving material properties
In-house software enables full automation and seamless laser-process integration, with intuitive operation, flexible customisation and reliability tuned to specific production needs
Quickly reconfigure for new product variants, ensuring smooth changeovers and higher productivity
Cladding delivers clean separation with very low dilution between substrate and build-up layers
A modular coordinate system with interchangeable attachments allows machine layouts tailored to part geometry and throughput — boosting flexibility across applications
Maintenance-free, high-efficiency VPG LaserOne fibre laser reduces scheduled service, downtime and OPEX while ensuring long-term reliability and strong ROI
