1. Laser as the heat source:
Both technologies employ high-power laser beams to rapidly melt metal materials. The high energy density and precise control of the laser are crucial in both cases.

2. Melting and solidification processes:
Laser welding bonds workpieces by melting the metal at the contact surfaces, whereas laser cladding creates a coating by melting both the additional material and the surface of the substrate. Despite different objectives, both processes involve the melting and solidification of metals.

3. Similarity in equipment:
The laser equipment and systems used are very much the same, each of them has a laser source, optical system, and control system.

4. Material handling:
Both technologies can manage additive metal materials, and in many cases, welding and cladding can be combined.

5. Precision machining:
The precision and control of laser technology make it highly useful for metal processing applications requiring high accuracy. For instance, laser welding is used in the production of electronic components, while laser cladding is employed for repairing aviation parts, both taking advantage of the laser's precision machining capabilities.

Laser cladding technology is an overlap of laser welding technology because they share the same fundamental principles, equipment, and operations. The primary distinction between them lies in their purpose and application areas, with laser cladding focusing on surface repair and laser welding on joining metal workpieces. Thus, laser cladding is a specialized application form of laser welding technology, and they complement each other in their applications.

Compared to laser welding, laser cladding requires much higher process standards. While the primary function of laser welding is to join two substrates together, laser cladding necessitates post-processing after the cladding procedure. In the post-processing phase, it is crucial to ensure that the cladded surface is free of cracks, fractures, or bubbles after polishing.

Laser cladding equipment is widely used in many industries for repairing the surface of components. Compared to traditional repair methods, laser cladding has the advantages of high precision, high bonding strength, material diversity, and reduced thermal impact.

Mining Machinery
 

The failure of mining machinery is mainly caused by friction and wear. Due to the poor working environment and complex and harsh working conditions of mining machinery.
Mining machinery operates under high-speed and high-temperature conditions, resulting in a large amount of energy waste. Long term wear and tear of components can cause damage to the surface machinery of mining machinery parts, leading to their scrapping and cessation of normal operation. Guosheng laser cladding equipment can effectively repair the components of mining machinery, enhance their wear resistance and corrosion resistance, and extend the service life of the machinery. The commonly repaired mining machinery components include cutting teeth, cutting teeth, shovel teeth, oil cylinders, hydraulic rods, etc.

Oil Extraction Equipment
 

Oil extraction equipment operates under high intensity and complex environments, leading to wear and tear on many components. The drill bit, for instance, frequently contacts rocks or other hard materials during drilling, causing wear on the cutting edges. Laser cladding can deposit wear-resistant materials on the worn surfaces of drill bits, extending their service life. The mud pump body and cylinder experience internal wall wear due to the transportation of slurry containing solid particles. Laser cladding technology can form a high-hardness wear-resistant layer on the internal walls of the pump body and cylinder, enhancing their wear resistance. Laser cladding technology has a wide range of applications in repairing and strengthening oil extraction equipment, significantly extending the equipment's service life and performance.

Metallurgical Machinery
 

Metallurgical machinery operates under high temperatures, high pressures, heavy loads, and corrosive environments, leading to wear on many components. For instance, rolls in metal rolling processes endure immense pressure and friction, resulting in surface wear and fatigue cracks. Laser cladding can deposit wear-resistant materials on the surface of rolls, repairing worn parts and enhancing their wear resistance. The copper plates of continuous casting machines come into contact with high-temperature molten steel during casting, leading to corrosion and wear. Laser cladding can form a corrosion-resistant and high-temperature protective layer on the copper plates, extending their service life.

Shipbuilding
 

In the shipbuilding industry, many components are prone to wear and corrosion due to prolonged operation in marine environments. For example, propellers, which frequently come into contact with waterborne debris and marine life, experience surface wear and corrosion. Shafts also face wear due to high-speed rotation and load stress. Laser cladding can deposit wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant materials on the surfaces of propellers and shafts, repairing worn areas and enhancing their resistance to corrosion. Gears in propulsion systems experience surface wear and fatigue cracks due to friction and load during transmission. Laser cladding can deposit high-hardness, wear-resistant materials on gear surfaces, restoring their transmission performance. Laser cladding equipment works by delivering cladding materials in powder or wire form into a laser beam, creating a melt pool on the substrate surface. Upon cooling, this forms a coating with excellent properties.

Agricultural Machinery

Agricultural machinery operates frequently in soil and vegetation, leading to wear and corrosion on many components. The plowshare, for example, comes into frequent contact with soil and rocks during plowing, causing surface wear. Laser cladding can deposit wear-resistant materials on the surface of the plowshare, repairing worn parts and enhancing its durability. Similarly, the blades of tillers experience wear due to their contact with soil and vegetation during rotary tilling. Laser cladding can form a wear-resistant layer on the blades, extending their service life. Laser cladding technology holds significant potential for repairing and strengthening agricultural machinery, greatly extending the service life and performance of the equipment.
