Light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation (laser) is a coherent and
monochromatic source of electromagnetic radiation that can propagate in a straight line with …

Hardfacing is an efficient and economical surfacing technique widely used by heavy
industries to remediate worn components in service or to enhance the component's wear …

In this study, Inconel 625 coatings were fabricated by laser cladding and shielded metal arc
welding, and the microstructure, hardness and wear resistance at both room and elevated …

A study of microstructure and volumetric dilution of Cold Metal Transfer (CMT) clad of Nickel
based super alloy, Inconel 617M on type 316L stainless steel (SS) substrate was carried out …

Although laser cladding process has been widely used to improve the wear and corrosion
resistance, there are unwanted cracking issues during and/or after laser cladding. This study …

The microstructure and sliding wear properties of Co-Cr-W alloy (Stellite 6) coatings were
studied in the dependence on the deposition technology. The HVOF as-sprayed, laser …

The severe operation conditions of the hot working process lead to premature failure of the
hot working tools. The dominant failure of hot working tools is wear of the tool surfaces …

Stellite 6 is a cobalt-base alloy which is resistant to wear and corrosion and retains these
properties at high temperatures. The exceptional wear resistance of Stellite 6 is mainly due …

The clad layers of Ni-based alloy were deposited on the SUS316L stainless plates by CO2
laser and plasma cladding processes. The smooth clad bead was obtained by CO2 laser …

Cold metal transfer (CMT) welding is a new gas metal arc welding process having several
advantages such as low heat input and spatter free welding. This makes it of great …
