To repair the damages of aero blades, laser cladding on GH710 substrate using NiCrMoNb powder by CO2 laser was carried out. The microstructure and microhardness of cladding layers were investigated. The property of dry sliding friction and wear in the air was tested. It was found that the cladding layer was well combined with the substrate. The white narrow metallurgical bonding zone was about 15~20μm. The microstructure transformed from coarse columnar grains to fine dendritic grains from bottom to top and the net-like grains were fabricated on the surface. The axis of columnar grains was perpendicular to the direction of the melting line. Columnar grains had the scale of 10~15μm on the width and 50~60μm in the axis direction. The area of the crystal lattice varied from 2μm×4μm to 5μm×9μm. The microhardness of cladding layer, metallurgical bonding zone and the substrate changed gradually. The microhardness was 450HV, 40%~50% higher than that of the substrate. The wearing capacity was 50%~55% of that of the substrate. The main form of abrasion was grain-abrasion and adhesion-abrasion.

The experiments of laser cladding on the surface of 20 steel were made. High-chromium (Cr) cast iron powder was used as cladding material. The microstructure and hardness of laser cladding layers under different scanning speed were studied. The experiments showed that high-Cr cast iron cladding layer had better properties such as minute crystals, high density, no crack, no gas cavity and good metallurgical bonding with base metal. When the scanning speed was low, such as 10mm/min, the microstructure of cladding layer was cellular dendrite. There were much carbide with the shape of fish-bone distributing among cellular grains. Under higher scanning speed (from 100mm/min to 300mm/min), needle-shaped primary cementite would come into being. When laser scanning speed was 500mm/min, the carbide of cladding zone was very thin. With the increasing of laser scanning speed, the average hardness of cladding zone increased from 388HV0.2 to 580 HV0.2.

By optimising the particle size of cladding alloy powders, in situ micron and submicron (Ti-V)C reinforced Fe-based laser cladding layers were prepared and the dry sliding friction properties were comparatively studied. Results showed that there were same phases of α-Fe, γ, TiC, and TiVC2 in the two cladding layers. The average grain size of the Fe-based matrix was 3.46 μm and 3.37 μm, the microhardness was 731 HV0.2 and 736 HV0.2, and the area ratio of carbides was 11.14% and 11.02%, respectively. The dry sliding wear resistance of the cladding layer reinforced by 1.95 μm carbides was 2.76 times higher than that of the 0.49 μm carbides. The failure mechanism of the cladding layer with the micron carbides was mainly caused by plastic deformation of the cladding layer matrix, whereas that of the submicron carbides involved both the plastic deformation of the cladding layer matrix and the abrasion that was caused by the peeled carbides.

To improve the comprehensive properties of titanium alloy, an experiment of laser-clad (Ti+Cr3C2+Al) has been carried out, using pulsed YAG laser as the radiated source. By optimizing the process parameters, we get uniform, continuous and flawless cladding layer with the composition changes gradient. It is found that cladding layer and the substrate show excellent metallurgical bonding. The microstructure transforms from coarse columnar grains to fine tree-like grains from substrate to top, and a small amount of TiAl and TiC ceramic hardening particles exists. The hardness of the cladding zone increases obviously, the maximum is 1650HV, 2-3 times of the substrate. A white narrow metallurgical bonding zone is formatted at interface between the cladding layer and the substrate.

Background: As an important method of remanufacturing, laser cladding can be used to obtain the parts with specific shapes by stacking materials layer by layer. The formation mechanism of laser cladding determines the “Staircase effect”, which makes the surface quality can hardly meet the dimensional accuracy of the parts. Therefore, the subsequent machining must be performed to improve the dimensional accuracy and surface quality of cladding parts. Methods: In this paper, chip formation, cutting force, cutting temperature, tool wear, surface quality, and optimization of cutting parameters in the subsequent cutting of laser cladding layer are analyzed. Scholars have expounded and studied these five aspects but the cutting mechanism of laser cladding need further research. Results: The characteristics of cladding layer are similar to that of difficult to machine materials, and the change of parameters has a significant impact on the cutting performance. Conclusion: The research status of subsequent machining of cladding layers is summarized, mainly from the aspects of chip formation, cutting force, cutting temperature, tool wear, surface quality, and cutting parameters optimization. Besides, the existing problems and further developments of subsequent machining of cladding layers are pointed out. The efforts are helpful to promote the development and application of laser cladding remanufacturing technology.

The purpose of this investigation is to test the laser cladding of different alloy powders onto 1045 medium-carbon steel substrates for parts remanufacturing. The types of alloy powder, laser output powers, and scanning speeds are selected as influencing factors to conduct laser cladding experiments with orthogonal design on the carbon steel 1045 substrate. Bonding shear strength and microhardness of the cladding layer and the substrate are tested and analyzed. The high resolution scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy are also used to analyze cladding layers, microstructures, and elements. The experimental results show that a good metallurgical bond is formed between the cladding layer and the substrate without porous cracks and other defects. Shear stress intensity of nickel-based powder is two to three times higher than that of substrate material, while iron-based powder is five times higher than the substrate material. The type of the powder is the most significant factor and laser power is the least. The hardness of outer cladding layer is higher than that of bonding section and inner section. In the heat-affected zone, hardness is higher than that of the substrate material.

In order to improve the surface Performance of thick copperplate, A Ni- Cr alloy coating metallurgically bonded onto thick copperplate is performed by YAG laser remelting plasma spraying coating process. In laser cladding processing, it is difficult to get good metallurgical bonding between the layer and copperplate. Plasma spraying technology is developed to get a alloy layer on the surface of thick copperplate, and then using YAG laser cladding method to make a coating. The results of Micro organization analysis indicate that the cladding layer and substrate form favorable metallurgical bonding, as a narrow metallurgical bonding zone, about 3m in thickness. The structure is more compact compared with witch of plasma spraying coating, and the crystal grains are refined grain.

The Co-base alloy laser cladding layer was coated on the 2738 mold steel surface by using the TJ-HL-5000 transverse-flow CO2 continuous laser. The morphology and hardness were investigated by metallography microscope, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and microhardness tester. The metallography microscope and SEM investigations show that from interface to surface along the cross section direction, the cladding layers consist of plane crystal layer, columnar crystal layer, dendrites layer and surface cellular crystal layer, respectively. XRD results indicate that the cladding layer is made of γ-Co, Cr23C6, MoC, FeCr and Co3Mo2Si phases. The micro-hardness of the laser cladding coating was about 900-1100HV1, 3 times or more of the steel substrate. And the mechanisms of microstructure formation and strengthening are investigated.
