Job description

When it comes to coatings, dissimilar materials need to be joined together, such as rigid substrates and low-friction coatings. Due to different melting points, the process window that joins materials is challenging to find. Predictive temperature control by active cooling is applied to stabilize the process and avoid overheating or undercooling. This innovative technology is referred to as CoolBraze, which paves the way to join materials that otherwise cannot be joint.

  • Development of a cooling nozzle design together with simulation experts
  • Development and setup of a system for closed-loop temperature control by active cooling
  • Development of laser process parameters and analysis of the produced coatings (e.g. bonding, porosity, cracking) together with material experts
  • Transfer of the newly developed process to parts on an industrial machine
