Laser cladding for yellow goods

The yellow goods industry, which includes heavy machinery such as excavators,
bulldozers, and demolition equipment, faces extreme challenges due to the harsh
environments in which this equipment operates. From constant wear caused by
abrasive materials to high-impact stress and corrosion, yellow goods machinery must
be highly durable and resilient. Topclad’s laser cladding solutions provide the protection
needed to ensure that this machinery performs optimally, even under the most
demanding conditions. Learn more about our expertise for equipment in harsh
environments on our page of the advantages of laser cladding (link).

Heavy equipment and its challenges

Yellow goods machinery operates in conditions where heavy mechanical loads, abrasive particles, and corrosive elements lead to significant wear and tear. Hydraulic cylinders, buckets, and transport rollers are constantly exposed to severe abrasion and impact, which can compromise their performance over time. Topclad’s advanced laser cladding technologies are specifically designed to extend the operational life of these components, ensuring that critical parts are protected from these harsh environments
and perform reliably for longer periods.

Laser cladding solutions for yellow goods

Topclad’s laser cladding solutions are ideal for yellow goods machinery due to their exceptional wear resistance, corrosion protection, and impact durability. Tardisphere, for example, is engineered to provide maximum resistance to both wear and impact, making it an excellent choice for heavy-duty applications such as hydraulic cylinder rods, pivot shafts, and transport rollers. By reinforcing these components with laser cladding, Topclad ensures they remain operational even under extreme mechanical stress.
