With the reduction of the cost of high-power laser equipment, more and more universities, enterprises and scholars at home and abroad are carrying out the application research of laser cladding remanufacturing technology. The integration of "equipment, materials, technology, products and services" makes laser cladding remanufacturing technology more and more perfect.
1. "Automation, intelligence and foolproof operation" is the equipment development direction of laser cladding remanufacturing technology
With the development of automation, the combination of laser processing system and computer numerical control technology can form efficient automatic processing equipment, which opens up a broad prospect for high-quality, high-efficiency and low-cost processing and production. In the future, the liberation of labor force and efficient production will provide a broad exhibition space for automation and intelligence. Such as laser cladding automatic loading and unloading production line, unmanned laser cladding production line, etc. The laser processing technology will be greatly simplified, and the operation and control of laser cladding technology will be simplified.
2. Functional optimization and performance stability are the research direction of laser cladding remanufacturing materials
In the field of remanufacturing, the development direction of laser cladding alloy powder is oriented to industrial application. The functional requirements of super wear resistance and corrosion resistance, and the quality requirements of high sphericity and stability will be the direction of continuous optimization of materials, and finally break the technical monopoly of foreign high-end alloy powder.
3. Efficiency improvement and process standardization are the development direction of laser cladding remanufacturing
The free development mode of workshop has made the industrialization scale of laser cladding grow rapidly, but it is faced with the same problems as the remanufacturing industry, that is, the lack of various standard systems. There are also reports on laser cladding related industries and enterprise standards, but it is difficult to regulate the entire industry. It will be a necessary link for the development of laser cladding remanufacturing industry in the future to establish standards and specifications for various processes and fields of laser cladding remanufacturing. In addition, various simple, convenient and standardized tooling created from the practice of laser cladding in the first line is also a favorable element for improving remanufacturing efficiency and quality assurance.
4. Developing new parts, working conditions and service modes suitable for laser cladding is the application and development direction of laser cladding remanufacturing technology
The transformation and application of composite material technology will open up a wider application field of laser remanufacturing, such as on-site laser cladding remanufacturing of large components, underwater laser cladding technology application, metal laser additive manufacturing, etc. These are new application fields of laser cladding remanufacturing technology. Therefore, the remanufacturing application prospect of key components in automobile, electric power, aviation, metallurgy, petroleum, navigation and other industries will be more broad.
