Daokedao Laser Cladding Success Story: Helping Italian Auto Parts Factory Reduce Costs by 40%
An Italian auto parts factory specializing in the production of engine components has long been troubled by the high scrap rate of parts due to surface defects. After introducing Daokedao's laser cladding equipment, the factory achieved a qualitative leap in cost control and product quality. Before using the equipment, the factory had to scrap parts with surface defects, resulting in a material waste rate of up to 15%. Daokedao's technical team customized a targeted laser cladding repair plan for the factory, using nickel-based alloy powder to clad the defective parts of the engine cylinder blocks and crankshafts. The repaired parts not only eliminated surface defects but also had higher wear resistance than the original parts. After half a year of use, the factory's scrap rate dropped to 2%, and the annual material cost was reduced by 40%. In addition, the laser cladding repair process is fast, which does not affect the factory's original production schedule. The factory manager said that Daokedao's equipment not only solved the long-term pain point but also improved the competitiveness of the products in the European market. This successful case has been widely promoted in the Italian auto parts industry, attracting many local enterprises to consult and purchase Daokedao's laser cladding equipment.
