Ideal for surface strengthening and cladding repair of cylindrical, tubular, and flat components across various industries:
Mining & hydraulic support – External surface reinforcement of cylinder barrels and hydraulic legs in coal mining roof supports.
Steel & metal rolling – Wear-resistant cladding for mill rolls, backup rolls, work rolls, and other frequently replaced parts.
Power transmission systems – Surface performance improvement for crankshafts, drive shafts, main shafts, and other rotating components.
Pipeline & energy sectors – External wall protection for pipes used in oil, gas, chemical, and power generation facilities.
Hydraulic systems – Uniform cladding on plungers, sleeves, and tubular parts to ensure sealing reliability.
Flat or partial surfaces – Targeted cladding on localized flat areas or irregular workpiece surfaces.
Q1: What is the powder utilization rate of this annular laser deposition head, and what hardness range can the cladding layer achieve?
A1: This annular deposition head achieves a powder utilization rate exceeding 90% thanks to its precision annular powder distribution and smooth
powder delivery design. The resulting cladding layer supports carbide coatings with a hardness range of 15–70 HRC, making it suitable for
applications that require either enhanced wear protection or improved machinability after cladding.
Q2: Can this external cylindrical cladding head be integrated with robotic systems for cladding on non-cylindrical or complex-shaped components?
A2: Yes. The system is specifically designed for robotic automation and is compatible with complex-shaped component cladding. While optimized
for external cylindrical surfaces (such as hydraulic legs, mill rolls, and drive shafts), it can also perform targeted cladding on flat or irregular
workpiece surfaces, offering high flexibility for industrial repair and surface enhancement applications.
