Hard Chrome Replacement: 24m Hydraulic Line


Project Background

The objective was to eliminate the environmental impact of hard chrome plating for offshore hydraulics. The client required a solution that would not only replace the old process but also significantly increase the durability and lifespan of their components.

The Hornet Solution

We engineered and delivered a fully integrated 24m x 40t Turnkey Laser Cladding System.

  • Core Technology: EHLA for high-speed cladding.
  • Capabilities: Handling of extremely large and heavy workpieces.
  • Integration: Complete system delivery including our proprietary control software.

Operational Outcome

A highly efficient production line capable of coating huge rods with minimal heat input and material usage. The customer now produces superior thin-layer coatings at speeds that drastically reduce turnaround time.
