TopClad ® is a unique laser surface treatment with a proven track record in heavy duty applications for demanding industries. By means of focused low-energy input, provided by laser technology, a selection of inter-metallic bonds of materials is melted to the substrate.Depending on the choice of the inter-metallic bonds, highly dedicated surface improvements can be achieved, for example highly anti-corrosive and wear-resistant surfaces. Due to thorough laboratory and field testing, TopClad ® is available in an extended mix of inter-metallic bonds, available for a wide range of heavy duty performances.Due to the focused energy input on the melting spot, the substrate is only exposed to a very limited amount of heat. Structural changes to the materials are negligible and the treated part retains its shape and dimensions.
