Laser cladding is a precision manufacturing process that involves depositing a layer of material, typically a metal or alloy, onto the surface of a substrate using a high-energy laser beam. Laser cladding selectively adds material to specific areas of a workpiece, allowing for precise and controlled modification of the surface.

It supports a wide range of materials, including metals, ceramics, and composites, making it adaptable to various applications. Laser cladding allows for customization of material composition, enabling tailored solutions for specific performance requirements.

Laser cladding is utilized in industries such as aerospace, automotive, oil and gas, and tooling, among others, for applications ranging from wear-resistant coatings to part refurbishment.
