Laser powder deposition, also widely known as laser cladding, has been proven to be an effective method that provides unique advantages for the deposited layers and the process itself. The laser cladding process enables the precise and efficient deposition of powdered materials onto a substrate using a high-energy laser beam. Due to the nature of the energy source, laser cladding offers numerous advantages in terms of design flexibility, material utilization, and production speed.
One of the key benefits of laser cladding is its ability to work with a wide range of powdered materials, including metals, alloys, ceramics, and composites. This versatility allows for the creation of complex geometries and the combination of different materials, opening new possibilities in the design and production of components.
