In de technologische industrie worden dagelijks onderdelen gereinigd om corrosie te verwijderen of corrosie en slijtage te vermijden. Naast het reinigen moeten onderdelen die door corrosie of slijtage aangetast zijn vakkundig hersteld worden om ze terug te kunnen gebruiken. Deze studiedag belicht de beide groepen van bewerkingen en presenteert een aantal praktische cases. Hierbij zullen recente innovatieve technieken aan bod komen die problemen op het vlak van reinigen en herstellen succesvol hebben opgelost. Industriële reiniging met licht

10. Example: Bosch Rexroth
• Case: Welding of NiCr – layer on hydraulic cylinder
• Problem: contaminations and oxides disturbing the weld
 Expensive corrections need to be made
• Solution:
• 1 laser cleaning the cylinder before welding
• 1 laser cleaning the cylinder after welding

12. Umicore Germany
• Case: welding of rain-drain tubes
• Problem: polymer coating on the tube
Bad welding quality due to the polymer in welding zone
• Solution: Laser evaporates a thin line (5mm width).
Welding quality improved enormously
Material loss 28%  2%

Case: KTL painting of wind screen wipers
Problem: coating disturbs electrical contact
 Sometimes the wipers come out with zebra-pattern
or just uncoated. Production loss (1%)
Solution: Laser evaporates the coating at a specific
point to ensure electrical contact
No more production loss 0%!!
