Method for repairing a turbocharger component and laser coating machine

摘要

A method for repairing a turbomachine component comprises the steps of: setting up a laser cladding machine including a laser source a powder feeder and an air source, for repairing a narrow recess of the turbomachine component; defining a path including areas to be repaired by laser cladding within the narrow recess; moving forward the laser cladding machine or the turbomachine component, in order that said path is covered from the first to the second end point by the laser beam and the powder jet for repairing said areas to be repaired; moving backward the laser cladding machine or the turbomachine component, in order that said path is covered from the second to the first end point by the air jet for blowing away the powder in excess.
