The Hornet Mobile™ Laser Cladding System

The choice between a mobile and a fixed system depends entirely on the size, location, and nature of the components needing the laser cladding treatment.

Mobile systems offer convenience and cost savings for large-scale, on-site repairs, while fixed systems excel in controlled, high-volume manufacturing or smaller part refurbishment.

While fixed systems are optimized for repeatable processes in a dedicated production line, The Hornet Mobile System is engineered for situations where the component simply cannot or should not be moved.

1. Eliminate Logistical Hurdles: Moving oversized components is a project in itself. It requires heavy transport, specialized handling, and carries inherent risks. The Hornet Mobile System bypasses this completely. The system is brought to your part, minimizing operational complexity.
2. Drastic Downtime Reduction: Where logistics and transport can take days or even weeks, The Hornet Mobile System can be deployed immediately. For large, capital-intensive assets, this translates to a direct cost saving.
3. Flexibility for Complex Access: Our mobile system, using a robot, can access difficult or complex geometries and be used in narrow or high-altitude locations, offering greater adaptability to different work environments
