LASERCARB ® Wear Resistance – Uniquely Engineered

Technogenia, innovators of the Lasercarb hardfacing process, is strategically applying its’ proprietary Technolase® powders with Spherotene®, a spherical cast tungsten carbide, to extend component wear life against abrasion, corrosion and erosion in these industries:
  • Oil & Gas
  • Mining
  • Tunneling
  • Mixing Equipment
  • Geodrilling
  • Industrial
  • Agriculture
  • Construction

LASERCARB ® BENEFITS

A close up of a laser cutting machine cutting a piece of metal.
  • CNC, 5-Axis automated laser for precise deposit
  • Extremely high deposit efficiency
  • High hardness factor 3000 HV, low heat affected zone (.060”)
  • Virtually no porosity, minimal to no deformation 
  • High range of thickness deposit
  • Numerous combinations of powders, application-specific
  • Superior metallurgical bond
  • Applied to Carbon steel, Stainless steel, Non-mag stainless steel
  • Can be applied to virtually any profile

THE LASERCARB ® PROCESS

Utilizing a CNC controlled, high energy diode laser, a precise, metallurgical weld deposit is applied to the component surface to protect against abrasion, corrosion and erosion. The application-specific Technolase powder matrix in combination with our Spherotene® cast tungsten carbide provides a hardness factor of 3000Hv + 500.
