Abstract:Laser cladding uses a high-energy laser beam as a heat source to rapidly melt and solidify the cladding material onto the substrate to form a high-performance coating. This technology provides an efficient and economical method to repair and remanufacture precision equipment such as engines and spacecraft. However, the inherent non-equilibrium solidification properties of laser cladding often lead to problems such as coating anisotropy, high porosity, and elemental segregation. Optimizing process parameters an… Show more
