Repair and Restoration of Rotating Equipment Using Laser Cladding Technology

2024-07-18T17:47:57+00:00July 11th, 2024|Laser Cladding, Services|

Laser cladding is a technique used to repair and enhance the surface properties of rotating equipment. It involves using a high-powered laser to melt and fuse a coating material onto the substrate of a component. This method is particularly useful for repairing worn or damaged parts and providing a surface that is more resistant to

Repair of Decanter Centrifuge Components

2024-07-08T12:41:43+00:00May 28th, 2024|Laser Cladding, Services|

Repair of Decanter Centrifuge Components Centrifuges are commonly used in medical, manufacturing and waste processing fields. They use a process that accelerates heterogeneous mixtures into components based on different densities. Density compares the amount of matter an object has to its relative volume. When one solution has a higher density than the solvent the particles

Repairing Large Critical Components using Laser Cladding

2023-07-26T01:26:05+00:00May 8th, 2023|Laser Cladding|

Were you aware that Synergy has the ability to repair large components? Recently, a flywheel with a diameter of over 1 meter was ground too much (0.015"/0.4mm) during prefinal operation, which was only discovered after nitriding. Scrapping the part would result in a significant financial loss and cause unforeseen delays for the customer. However, there

Repair and Refurbishment of high precision shafts using Laser Cladding

2023-07-26T01:26:55+00:00March 21st, 2023|Laser Cladding|

Shaft laser cladding is a highly effective process for the repair and refurbishment of industrial machinery components such as precision tools, motor shafts, centrifuge components etc.  especially those that have suffered from wear and tear or corrosion. This process uses a high-powered laser beam to melt and fuse a layer of metal powder onto the

Tool and Die Repair and Engineering Changes Using Laser Cladding

2023-06-27T21:08:41+00:00June 21st, 2021|Laser Cladding|

Laser cladding improves the tool life. Laser cladding is an effective tool for the repair and engineering changes on tooling and dies. Compared to conventional welding techniques, laser cladding inputs minimal heat resulting in minimal to no distortion on the dies. The deposited material forms a metalogical bond with the substrate and does not chip
