Our solutions make it possible to quickly produce parts with high mechanical strength or to add a layer with a high degree of wear resistance by combining different materials
A gasket surface that has corroded during a scheduled unit shutdown: Sotimeco can rebuild it using DED laser technology, a quick repair method well-suited for turnarounds.
Étanchéité en vapeur haute pression ou en fluide primaire nucléaire : Sotimeco peut y déposer par DED Laser des alliages Stellite ou Inconel, sur un corps en acier standard.
Tool joints and stabilizers worn down by constant contact with rock: Sotimeco can hardface them using DED laser technology with hard, abrasion-resistant alloys.
A corroded wind turbine tower bracket discovered during an inspection does not render the entire section unusable: Sotimeco can repair it using DED laser technology to extend the tower’s service life.
H2S/CO2 corrosion, high pressures: Sotimeco can use DED laser cladding to apply an Inconel or Stellite coating to wellheads while retaining a standard steel body.
Corrosion and erosion in fluid contact areas: Sotimeco can use DED laser cladding to apply an Inconel coating to the tube sheets and tubes of heat exchangers.
Des équipements de sécurité critiques en acier forgé de forte épaisseur : Sotimeco peut en recharger les surfaces d'étanchéité par DED Laser, selon les exigences API 6A/16A.
Mechanical seal seats exposed to contaminated or corrosive fluids: Sotimeco can reseal them using DED laser technology without having to replace the entire shaft.
Perfect sealing in corrosive marine environments: Sotimeco can apply an anti-corrosion coating to subsea connectors using DED laser technology, which is more reliable than plating.
Une roue de turbine hydraulique est souvent unique, sur-mesure pour un barrage : Sotimeco peut en recharger les zones de cavitation par DED Laser plutôt que de la refabriquer.
Corrosive and erosive fluids, high temperatures: Sotimeco can use DED laser cladding to deposit Stellite or Inconel alloys onto the seats of petrochemical process valves.
Avoiding the lifting of heavy components offshore: Sotimeco can use DED Laser technology to rebuild the bearing surfaces of a wind turbine's main shaft without replacing it.
Un rotor de turboalternateur forgé d'une seule pièce prend plusieurs mois à fabriquer : Sotimeco peut en recharger les portées de paliers par DED Laser plutôt que de le remplacer.
A metal insert that has deteriorated at the base of an expensive composite blade: Sotimeco can rebuild it using DED laser technology, rather than scrapping the entire blade.
Une couronne d'orientation pitch/yaw compte parmi les pièces les plus chères d'une éolienne : Sotimeco peut en recharger la piste de roulement par DED Laser plutôt que de la remplacer.
Piquages de cuve, brides, supports du circuit primaire : Sotimeco peut y déposer par DED Laser un cladding anticorrosion qualifié, en acier inoxydable ou base nickel.
Corrosion and erosion in fluid contact areas: Sotimeco can use DED laser cladding to apply an Inconel coating to the tube sheets and tubes of heat exchangers.
Micro-pitting, tooth spalling: Sotimeco can use DED laser cladding to rebuild wind turbine gearboxes, allowing them to return to service more quickly than with a standard replacement.
Eroded seal seats on high-value-added pump and compressor shafts: Sotimeco can rebuild them using DED laser technology without having to replace the entire shaft.
