The AL-ROCK is the first mobile robot for targeted hardening of metal surfaces – whether at the customer’s site or at changing locations in the hall. With the self-driving caterpillar track, you can move the laser right to the workpiece. There is no need to remove the components to be hardened, and reworking cost is significantly reduced. All that is needed is the laser beam’s free access to the processing location. The laser beam precisely follows the workpiece contour in free 3D movements. This allows weld edges, grain structures, nubs or individual points to be hardened easily. Temperature-dependent control of the laser power brings the heat precisely to the desired location to achieve the maximum hardness needed there. The component’s surrounding areas receive little or no heat load. For quality control, the hardening process is documented, ensuring process reliability and reproducibility. With the AL-ROCK, you can also perform laser deposition welding with powder or wire (with add-on modules).
