Restoration of Hydropower Turbine Cover Seal Ring Using Laser Cladding

During operation, the turbine cover seal ring may suffer from wear, scratches, or dimensional changes due to prolonged working conditions. Proper restoration of the worn area helps maintain sealing performance, stable operation, and extend the service life of the component.

Restoration Solution Using Laser Cladding

Phuong Dong uses Laser Cladding technology to restore worn areas on hydropower turbine cover seal rings.

The cladding material is selected based on the base material and actual operating conditions of the component. The laser creates a localized molten pool, allowing the deposited material to form a metallurgical bond with the substrate while minimizing heat input and thermal deformation compared with conventional welding repair methods.

Restoration Process

The restoration process includes:

Inspection → Surface cleaning and preparation → Laser Cladding → Machining to final dimensions → Quality inspection.

After cladding, the component is machined to the required dimensions and tolerances according to technical specifications.

Benefits of Restoration

Laser Cladding provides several benefits:

  • Restores the original dimensions and geometry of worn seal rings.
  • Provides a wear-resistant surface suitable for the operating conditions.
  • Minimizes thermal deformation of the component.
  • Allows existing components to be reused, reducing replacement costs.
  • Reduces repair time and helps return equipment to operation more quickly.
