In the steel industry, roll journals are subjected to extreme mechanical loads. At the same time, long lead times and rising costs for spare parts are increasingly causing bottlenecks – a change of approach is needed.
Our Solution: Laser Cladding
With our laser cladding process, we offer a cost‑effective, high‑performance alternative to manufacturing new components. Refurbished roll journals deliver:
- Short repair and turnaround times
- Significantly extended service life compared with uncoated components
- High dimensional accuracy and consistent coating quality
Thanks to localised material build‑up with a metallurgical bond, worn journals can be restored quickly, precisely and with long‑term reliability – tailored exactly to the specific duty and load profile in your mill.
