Abstract: A method and device for coating a component wherein the cooling fluid ducts contained in the component have to be reopened following the coating step. The component has a first region and a second region, where the first region includes at least one cooling fluid opening having an adjoining cooling fluid channel and where the first region is to be coated with a coating material which is not to be applied in the second region.

Abstract: A method for coating a part having a surface that has cooling fluid openings that adjoin cooling fluid ducts inside the part.

Abstract: By using a water-based liquid mixture containing amino acids, the cavities of a hollow component can be filled very easily and very quickly, while nevertheless providing the internal structure with adequate protection. In addition, the filling material can be removed again very easily after the laser drilling.

Abstract: Introducing a through hole into a substrate (4) before coating, and performing the removal thereafter, shortens the machining times for producing a through hole (18) with a diffuser (13) and also subjects the intermediate layers to less stress.

Abstract: A method is provided for protecting a component during laser working or working that produces melt phases, particularly during laser drilling, of the component with a cavity, in which a through-hole is introduced through a wall of the cavity of the component, in which the cavity is filled at least in an area of a region to be worked, including introducing a mixture of a water-based liquid mixture containing amino acid into the cavity as a filling.

Abstract: A process for reopening cooling-air holes by a laser in order to remove coat down is provided. A nanosecond laser is provided and used for reopening the holes, wherein pulse times between 1 ?s and 20 ?s and a pulse frequency between 20 kHz and 40 kHz provided by the nanosecond laser are used.

Abstract: During the coating of a component including cooling-air holes, it is necessary, when remachining the coated cooling-air holes, to determine the correct alignment of the cooling-air row. A process is provided in that at least two cooling-air holes are kept clear by a masking material during the coating and the alignment of the cooling-air row is effected on the basis of these two unclosed cooling-air hole.

Abstract: A process for making a hole into a substrate by at least one laser includes a first step which involves producing at least one intermediate hole with a diameter which is smaller than a final diameter of a final hole to be produced. The intermediate hole with the smaller diameter is a through-hole. The intermediate hole is produced by percussion process. The process further includes a second step which involves producing the final hole having the final diameter. The final hole is produced by machining the intermediate through-hole by a trepanning process so that the final diameter of the final hole is achieved.

Abstract: A process is provided for protecting a component during a laser machining of the component with a hollow space. The process includes filling the hollow space with Teflon powder at least in the region of the region to be machined. The Teflon powder is introduced into the hollow space with a gelling agent.

Abstract: A process using a single millisecond laser is presented. The process is traversed over the surface of a component a number of times. The tilt angle of the laser beam with respect to a drilling axis during a subsequent traverse is different from the tilt angle with respect to the drilling axis during the first traverse of the surface. By using the single millisecond laser which although producing rougher surfaces than other millisecond lasers has higher material-removal rates, repeated traverses using different process parameters allow millisecond lasers to be successfully used to produce smooth surfaces.

Abstract: A process for making a hole into a substrate by a laser is provided. According to the proposed process, in a first step, at least one intermediate hole is produced into the substrate by at least one laser, the intermediate hole having an intermediate diameter that is smaller than a final diameter of the hole to be made. In a second step, the hole having the final diameter is produced into the substrate by the at least one laser.
