Over 40 machines supplied, and installed worldwide

We are capable of creating heavy duty systems for cladding parts up to 26 meters long, but also for parts of just a few centimeters; from conventional cladding speeds to extreme high-speed cladding (EHLA).

With systems installed all over the world we know that reliable functionality of our systems is essential. Based on the customers requirement we take care for tailor-made service contracts, carried out by our professional service technicians.

Once developed, built and delivered, a Hornet system can be operational within a few days. Our technicians will perform the installation of the system.

To be highly effective with our systems, support with the set-up and the understanding of the actual laser cladding process is essential.

We have Hornet as supplier for our two laserclad systems. Our first system a 2KW laser from Laserline and now 4 years later our new 4KW laser from Laserline. We needed to expand our capacity with a second laser and made a business case of our needs together with Hornet.

They recommended that a complete 4KW laser system from Laserline was the best match for our needs. We are very glad with our new laser system and the service from Hornet.

Also for laser safety, spare parts and repair parts the help from Hornet is always accurate and fast.

We have worked with Hornet Laser Cladding for the development of a multi-process direct metal deposition device. Thanks to their background and their extended expertise, they were able to develop unique equipment combining laser cladding, wire arc additive manufacturing and wire laser additive manufacturing. For us the big advantage was to work with an integrator able to understand our request and design customized equipment able to be further developed as a function of our research fields.

Following this first good experiment, we have recommended Hornet Laser Cladding to our industrial partners.
