Abstract
In laser cladding, in the wavelength range of blue, light absorptivity of copper is much higher than that in the wavelength range of infrared. The authors developed the laser cladding system with the continuous wave blue direct diode laser (blue DDL). The system consists of a number of fiber-coupled blue DDLs with a maximum power of 20 W at a wavelength of 445 nm, a focusing lens, and a powder feeding nozzle. In this study, the authors investigated the fundamental characteristics of the multiple blue DDL system and formed copper film on 304 stainless steel plate using the system.
