Laser Metal Deposition, or Laser Additive Manufacturing, is an advanced technique depositing layers using a laser beam. Our goal is to optimize a coaxial powder nozzle for a narrower laser beam, enhancing precision in the ...
Innovative laser additive manufacturing technique was employed to successfully repair a titanium impeller, addressing challenges related to material integrity and complex geometry. The utilization of a positive-pressure chamber ensured proper gas shielding, resulting in multiple ...
The susceptibility of titanium to oxidization poses a formidable challenge during laser materials processing, especially at temperatures exceeding 450°C. To counteract oxygen absorption, an effective shielding mechanism is imperative. Numerous shielding chambers have been explored, ...
Dissimilar joints especially aluminum (Al) to copper (Cu) have been drawn enormous attention in recent years. Challenges of joining aluminum to copper could be (1) high thermal conductivity and high reflectivity of these metals and ...
At the Metalaser Laboratory, we developed a process for manufacturing a rotary cutter for the pelletizing process in petrochemical companies. Rotary cutters are mainly subjected to wear and cyclic fatigues due to harsh and wear-full ...
In Metalaser Laboratory, we have pioneered a restoration process for damaged High-Pressure Turbine (HPT) blades in aero gas turbine engines. Leveraging Laser Directed Energy Deposition (L-DED), our method involves using a laser beam to forge ...
