    Experience Industrial Laser Surfacing Applications
    Authors:
    Trevor Anderson, Jarvie Engineering Pty. Ltd.; Newcastle NSW Australia Australia
    Presented at PICALO 2008

    Laser surfacing, also known as laser cladding is an emerging technology that has gained a very important foothold in the area of industrial maintenance. Not only is the process providing new opportunities to resurface and extend critical component life, it is also facilitating the development of new products and opportunities that were previously considered impractical. The process is amongst the most expensive industrial coating processes available to the market today. However the last 8 years in Australia has seen process accept...

    Advancement in Laser Drilling for Aerospace Gas Turbines
    Authors:
    Mohammed Naeem, GSI Group, Inc. - Laser Division; Rugby Great Britain
    John Chinn, Gsi Group; Rugby Great Britain
    Presented at PICALO 2008

    Aerospace gas turbines require a large number of small diameter holes (<1mm) to provide cooling in the turbine blades, nozzle guide vanes, combustion chambers and afterburner. Many thousands of holes are introduced in the surface of these components to allow a film of cooling air to flow over the component. Film cooling both extends the life of the component and enables extra performance to be achieved from the engine. A typical modern engine will have ~ 100,000 such holes. Drillin...

    Friedrich Dausinger, FGSW Forschungsgesellschaft für Strahlwerkzeuge GmbH; Stuttgart Germany
    Presented at PICALO 2008

    Further developments in laser beam sources as fiber and thin disk lasers allow deep penetration welding with unrivalled welding speeds because of their high brilliance. Thereby imperfections in the welding seam may occur - particularly humping as well as spatters. Visual and infrared high-speed videos show the location and the formation of the humps. The humping phenomenon during the high speed welding proc...

    Presented at PICALO 2008

    The increasing demand for improved fuel efficiency and reduced emissions has prompted the automotive industry to seek methods of reducing vehicle body weight by using materials with good strength to weight ratio, such as ultra-high strength (UHS) steels. Consequently, these steels have been the fastest growing weight reducing materials to be used in vehicle structures in the last decade, despite competition from aluminium alloys and composite materials. Laser welding of UHS steels, eith...
