At Hornet Laser Cladding, we understand that operational excellence and precision are crucial to your production.
Innovation is what drives us, and we continuously strive to solve the challenges of complex manufacturing processes. That is why we are proud to introduce our new Stand-off Distance Control System, an innovation specifically designed to maximize accuracy when laser cladding long workpieces.
The Challenge of Long Workpieces
When working with long rods or other lengthy workpieces, they can bend under their own weight if steady rests are not used. This inevitable bending causes height deviations in the nozzle stand-off distance during longitudinal processing. However, maintaining a constant nozzle stand-off distance is absolutely crucial to ensure high-quality results throughout the operation.
Our Solution: Real-Time Correction
The Hornet stand-off distance control system addresses this issue head-on. The system continuously measures any deviations on the material surface and automatically adjusts the processing head position in real-time. This ensures that the distance between the nozzle and the workpiece remains perfectly constant throughout the entire processing time.
Key Benefits:
- Guaranteed Quality: Achieves superior and consistent laser cladding results, regardless of the length or natural bending of the component.
- Increased Reliability: Minimizes quality deviations and ensures a highly stable process.
- Available Now: This advanced control system is available as an option on all our laser cladding systems.
