Laser Hardfacing with Tungsten Carbide

Laser hardfacing involves using a laser to apply an overlay of hard and wear-resistant material onto functional surfaces. This process enhances the performance and durability of components, making them better equipped to withstand wear and tear. There are various techniques for overlaying metals and hardfacing critical components. Every industrial process possesses its own distinct characteristics and advantages. In this blog post, we will delve into the advantages of utilizing laser cladding technology for hardfacing with Tungsten Carbides. Additionally, we will provide detailed answers to common queries related to this advanced process.

Laser Cladding vs. Thermal Spray: Understanding the Strengths

Laser Cladding and Thermal Spray are two distinct techniques used to enhance surface properties in various industrial applications. Both technologies are effective for hard-facing, corrosion resistance, and dimensional restoration, but they each offer unique advantages. This blog delves into the strengths and ideal uses of Laser Cladding and Thermal Spray processes.

Stellite 6 Overlay With Laser Cladding

Stellite™ 6  is a cobalt-based alloy renowned for its exceptional performance in high-temperature wear and corrosion resistance. Composed of 27%-32% chromium, 4%-6% tungsten, 1%-2% carbon, 3%-4% nickel, 1%-2% silicon, 3%-4% iron, and the balance being cobalt, this material maintains its hardness
