Abstract

Industrial benchmarks are often subject to the wear and corrosion of the working environment. Laser cladding is a surface modification process that can improve their lifespan by ensuring hard, homogeneous, non-porous layers. The paper presents a series of experiments aimed at testing and calibrating the injection system used, making laser cladding with Ni-Cr-B-Fe-Al alloy on a series of industrial benchmarks and characterizing them in terms of hardness, thickness and microstructure.
