Exploration of the Application of Laser Cladding Technology in Teaching Materials Processing in Colleges and Universities

Laser cladding technology has been developed continuously since the 1970s and has been widely used in aerospace, automobile manufacturing, energy, and other fields, and its technical advantages have been gradually recognized and promoted. At present, the teaching of materials processing in colleges and universities mainly relies on traditional theory lectures and experimental operations, but with the rapid development of industrial technology, this mode of teaching is gradually exposed to many shortcomings. The purpose of this paper is to discuss the application methods and modes of laser cladding technology in the teaching of materials processing in colleges and universities. Through the overview of the development of this technology and its case study in actual teaching, it shows how to effectively integrate laser cladding technology into the teaching system to meet the current situation and needs of materials processing teaching in colleges and universities.
