Powder for PTA/Laser Cladding Description:
Emerged in the 1960s, PTA (Plasma Transferred Arc) surface welding is a type of thermal process designed for metallic surface protection, resulting in enhanced wear and corrosion resistance. This hardfacing process employs a high-energy plasma transferred arc as a heat source to melt a hardfacing consumable (alloy powder) onto the surface of the substrate. It is an alternative to laser cladding.
Laser cladding also refers to laser metal deposition. It is a surface modification technique that adds a hardfacing material, typically an alloy powder, onto the surface of a metallic substrate. Heating the hardfacing material with laser beams, this technique creates a molten pool, depositing a metallurgical surface coating with properties such as corrosion resistance and wear resistance on the substrate material.
