Titel
Adaptive laser cladding system with variable spot sizes
Abstract
The ALAS project aims to develop an innovative adaptive laser cladding system with variable spot size which will include an adaptive optical system that will control the laser focus distance on the fly, a real-time FPGA system that will control the laser parameters to ensure a steady process quality and an user friendly interface in order to simplify the programming tasks. This system will constitute an efficient instrument for part repair with complex geometries and coating selective surfaces. This will be a significant step forward into the total industrial implementation of an automated industrial laser cladding process.
