Flat-Top Square Beam Laser Cladding Optics for OD Surfaces

The Square Beam LMD Head for External Cylindrical Cladding features a reflective off-axis powder feeding design with a flat-top square beam, ensuring uniform energy distribution and minimal overlap defects for smooth, high-quality cladding layers. It supports both annular center powder feeding and composite deposition, delivering smooth powder flow with utilization rates ≥90%. Compatible with complex-shaped components and high-hardness carbides, this versatile head can also be used for precise laser hardening, providing a multi-functional solution for industrial surface enhancement and repair.

FAQ

Q1: Why choose a square beam LMD head over a traditional round beam for cylindrical cladding?

A1: The flat-top square beam provides uniform energy distribution across the entire cladding width, significantly reducing overlap defects and improving surface smoothness compared to

round beam systems. This results in higher-quality cladding layers with fewer post-processing requirements — ideal for hydraulic legs, mill rolls, and drive shafts.

Q2: Can this square beam deposition head be used for applications other than cladding?

A2: Yes. In addition to laser metal deposition (LMD) with powder utilization rates ≥90%, this versatile head can also perform precise laser hardening on component surfaces. This dual

functionality makes it a cost-effective solution for both surface enhancement (wear-resistant coatings) and surface hardening applications across mining, steel rolling, and power

transmission industries
