In the automotive industry, stamping dies play a critical role in determining product quality and production efficiency. Because they operate continuously under high mechanical loads, areas such as cutting edges, radii, and forming surfaces are subject to significant wear. These working areas therefore require surface hardening to ensure die durability ...

After years of operation in a hydropower environment, the blades of a Francis turbine runner are often affected by cavitation erosion and corrosion, leading to material loss, reduced turbine efficiency, and a shorter service life. In this project, PHUONG DONG successfully restored a Francis turbine runner with a diameter of ...

The turbine shaft seal ring is a critical component in hydropower generating units. After long-term operation, it is often subject to wear, leading to reduced sealing performance and lower operating efficiency. Instead of replacing the component at a high cost, Laser Cladding provides an efficient solution to restore the original ...

Internal bore cladding is an advanced technological solution used to repair and reinforce the inner surfaces of various mechanical components. This process utilizes a high-power laser beam to create a metallurgically bonded coating layer with the base material, enhancing wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and significantly extending the service life of ...

In hydropower plants, the turbine runner is a critical component that directly determines the efficiency and operational stability of the entire unit. During operation, it is exposed to high-pressure water containing sand and various impurities, leading to surface wear and cavitation over time. If not repaired in a timely manner, ...

In hydropower plants, the nozzle needle and seat ring are critical components that are continuously exposed to high-pressure water flow and cavitation. Over time, their working surfaces suffer from wear and erosion, directly affecting system efficiency and operational stability. Laser Cladding technology is an effective restoration solution, helping recover dimensions ...

In the context of rising costs for materials, equipment, and industrial resources, many companies worldwide are shifting from equipment replacement to component repair and life extension. At the same time, advanced surface engineering technologies are being adopted to enhance durability and improve performance from the outset. Among these technologies, Laser ...

Slewing bearings are critical components used in many industrial machines such as cranes, excavators, construction equipment, rotating systems, and automation equipment. During operation, the raceway surface of the bearing is subjected to heavy loads, continuous friction, and harsh working environments, which can lead to wear and reduced component lifespan. Laser ...
