This paper describes the application of a cobalt-based hardsurfacing alloy to a nickel-based gas turbine blade for aero-engine use. The prior technique, manual argon arc welding, was time consuming, critically dependent upon operator skill and suffered from a lack of reproducibility, particularly in the level of nickel dilution produced. The use of a laser and a blown-powder technique to introduce the hardsurfacing alloy enables clad deposits of optimum wear characteristics, free from heat-affected zone cracking and of a consistent quality to be produced. The process is able to be automated and run under microprocessor control.
