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 turbine blade with damage to the leading edge cannot always be replaced: Sotimeco can repair it using DED laser technology, with localized deposition that avoids the need to remelt the entire part.
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.
Roller tracks, sprockets, and tracks worn down by the ground: Sotimeco can remanufacture them using DED laser technology, ensuring that military fleets are quickly restored to operational condition.
The cavities in forging dies crack due to thermal fatigue long before the billet fails: Sotimeco can rebuild the engraving using DED laser technology rather than remaking the entire tooling.
A marine propeller damaged by cavitation does not necessarily have to be remelted: Sotimeco can repair it using DED laser technology (NAB alloy) without remelting the entire propeller.
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 few damaged teeth on a large-diameter gear or a gearbox dog gear: Sotimeco can repair the area using DED laser technology before re-cutting or grinding.
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.
Mechanical seal seats exposed to contaminated or corrosive fluids: Sotimeco can reseal them using DED laser technology without having to replace the entire shaft.
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.
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.
Fittings and rotor mounts for military helicopters: Gicam’s technology can repair them using DED laser technology, a matter of national sovereignty for fleets no longer in production.
When multiple rollers on the same line are worn down by scale, Sotimeco can resurface their outer diameter using DED laser technology without having to replace the entire shaft.
Molten glass at over 1,000 °C, followed by cooling, in each cycle: Sotimeco can use DED laser technology to rebuild the cavity of a glass mold rather than remelting it.
