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
DED competes with arc-welding on vertical cement mill grinders: Sotimeco can apply ultra-high-strength alloys using this process with greater metallurgical control.
Hardness and toughness are difficult to combine in conventional casting: Sotimeco can use DED laser cladding to reinforce the impact zone of crusher hammers without making the part brittle.
Every hour that a cement kiln is shut down is costly: Sotimeco can use DED Laser technology to rebuild the bearing surfaces of the kiln rings and rollers during a scheduled on-site service call.
Certain types of ball mill liners—which are not very standardized—can be reconditioned rather than scrapped after a single production run: an avenue that Sotimeco is exploring.
Clinker, fiber-laden paper pulp: the flights of conveyor screws wear in the same way—Sotimeco can resurface them using DED Laser technology on their outer diameter.
