HALDEN Laser Cladding Solutions
High-Speed External Diameter Laser Cladding Machine
A practical solution for shaft repair, remanufacturing, and hard chrome replacement,
with integrated turning and cladding for higher efficiency and better coating quality.
Product Overview
The High-Speed External Diameter Laser Cladding Machine is designed for the remanufacturing and repair of shaft-type parts.
It is especially suitable for customers who need a cleaner and more advanced alternative to hard chrome plating.
This machine integrates turning and high-speed laser cladding into one process flow, allowing additive and subtractive operations
to be completed in a single setup for better efficiency and improved dimensional consistency.
Why This Machine Stands Out
Integrated Turning + Cladding
Complete additive and subtractive processing in one setup to reduce positioning error and improve efficiency.
High Processing Efficiency
Designed to increase output and improve coating quality through one-time clamping and hybrid processing.
Stable Coating Process
Developed through testing and process optimization to support stable, production-ready cladding performance.
Flexible Spindle Speed
Three speed options support both low-speed large-diameter parts and high-speed small-diameter parts.
Hydraulic Tailstock
Programmable adaptive hydraulic tailstock helps maintain stable pressure and compensates for thermal expansion.
Ideal for Chrome Replacement
A strong choice for replacing hard chrome plating on shaft-type components with a more advanced remanufacturing process.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is this machine mainly used for?
It is mainly used for external diameter laser cladding of shaft-type parts, especially for hard chrome replacement.
What is the main process advantage?
Its main advantage is integrated turning and cladding in one setup, which improves efficiency and reduces repositioning-related error.
What spindle speed options are available?
The available spindle modes are 5–150 rpm, 0.5–30 rpm, and 0.5–150 rpm.
Does it have a hydraulic tailstock?
Yes. It uses a programmable adaptive hydraulic tailstock to maintain constant pressure and compensate for thermal expansion and contraction.
