Laser cladding video

This gallery page is the old address for a laser cladding clip: powder leaving the nozzle, a melt pool that should stay the size of a coin, and a bead that will later meet a grinder. It is not a marketing montage. It is what the cell looks like when the lights are the process lights.

Watch for travel speed and whether the pool chases the head or lags into a cold stop. Those two habits decide dilution and lack of fusion more than any slogan on a booth banner. After the clip, the real arguments are on laser cladding: heat input, alloy, and whether the edge should have been HVOF instead. Heavy parts that wash at a corner usually belong here — heavy machinery says why.

The encoded query on this URL is leftover from a catalog that treated videos like folders. The file still answers so bookmarks from millwrights do not 404. If you arrived from a search, you are in the right shop: St. Louis Metallizing, Sarpy Avenue, thermal spray plus a cladding cell, grind bays attached. Start at the home page if you need the map, or Our Company if you need the certifications that sit behind the pretty light.

Cladding video does not show the grind, the balance ticket, or the inspector with a penetrant bottle. Those live on CNC grind, quality, and FPI. A clip without those pages is a campfire. Customers who already know the alloy still send a print because the camera does not measure remaining wall.
